ABSTRACT:
The seat post includes a hollow support tube 1 which is partly inserted into a cycle frame 24 and carries a bracket 2 for supporting a seat. A series of light-emitting diodes 12 mounted on a printed circuit board 8 emit light through windows 13 in the support member. The circuit board also carries a flush-mounted or recessed on/off switch 9 which is accessible to control the supply of power to the diodes 12. Power may be supplied by one or more cells 16 inserted in the support member via a removable bottom end cap 21. The support member can also contain rechargeable cells which can be recharged via a power connector 32 at the bottom end of the support member.
