ABSTRACT:
A shock absorbing bicycle seat mounting post assembly is mounted in a hollow tubular socket member, by means of a binder clamp, in the frame of a bicycle. The shock absorber includes a compression spring which will effectively absorb shocks which are carried through the frame when the wheels encounter obstacles and holes when traveling along the ground. The bicycle seat mounting post assembly includes a number of shims which will adapt the post assembly to varying sizes of bicycle frames. A bellows is provided to keep dirt and dust out of the spring area and protect skin and fingers from being pinched. Stabilization is enhanced by the provision of a piston at the lower end of the movable shaft upon which the seat is attached. A variable volume reducing device may be positioned below the seat mounting post to adjust the volume of air trapped below the piston.
