ABSTRACT:
A body motion actuated, bicycle seat brake comprises a seat resiliently mounted on the seat tube of a bicycle such that at least the forward end of the mounting member may be deflected downwardly by the action of a rider shifting his weight forwardly relative to the mounting member forward end. A brake member is pivotably mounted at one end thereof to the forward end of the mounting member and is slidably mounted at an intermediate location thereof to at least the seat tube of the bicycle such that the distal end of the brake member is disposed in spaced proximity to the rear wheel when the forward end of the mounting member is in an undeflected position, and is urged into abutting, braking relationship with the rear wheel when the forward end of the mounting member is deflected. The seat may also be slidably mounted on the resilient mounting member.
