ABSTRACT:
A bicycle saddle to facilitate freestyle maneuvers. A protecting element comprising a roller assembly is supported in the rear portion and protrudes above the top surface of the saddle body to engage the pavement when the bike is in inverted position during freestyle maneuvers. This protects the saddle from scuffing damage and facilitates transition to and from the inverted position. Corrugations at opposite sides of the front nose portion facilitate gripping. Spring-biased pins at opposite ends of the roller assembly engage bores in the body and make it readily attachable and detachable. An upstanding, outwardly concave fillet extends along a clearance space between the body and roller assembly to prevent snagging a rider's clothing.
