A system including: a seat post; a user interface operatively connected with the seat post, the user interface configured for receiving instructions associated with a height of the seat post and for communicating received instructions to at least one controller coupled with a motive source of the seat post; and a valve assembly in communication with the motive source, the valve assembly regulating fluid flow within a variable finite positioning seat post height mode in response to a translation of the received instructions by the motive source.

A bicycle includes a frame having a seat tube, a rear wheel including a drive plate, and a drive system configured to drive rotation of the rear wheel. The drive system includes at least one shaft operably extending in a direction between the seat tube and the rear wheel and arranged to interact with the drive plate. A pair of drive assemblies are located near or at least in part inside the seat tube and are arranged to operably interact with the drive shaft. The at least one drive shaft converts linear motion of the drive assemblies into rotation of the rear wheel without a chain or chainring.

The invention relates to a Seated Collapsible Vehicle. The user can fold it and carry it as a trolley whenever needed and can be used as a vehicle by unfolding it. The vehicle can be powered by an external source like motor or an engine or by human power. The vehicle comprises of a front armature connected to the rear armature by a hinge. The rear armature also comprises retractable fork for the rear wheel. The rear armature also comprises the saddle armature, mounted over a hinge. The saddle armature mounts saddle with the help of saddle mounting mechanism. Front armature comprises a encloser for battery and electronics, the foot rests are also mounted on front armature for resting legs while riding. Front fork comprises front wheel and rotatable mounted on front armature with the help of bearings. Front fork has an extension rod which mounts handlebar at other end. The extension rod can extend and retract for the purpose of folding and dragging invention like a trolley.

Embodiments of the invention provide a customizable bicycle saddle for a bicycle. The bicycle saddle has been designed to allow it to be adjusted to match the ischial tuberosities of each rider's pelvis in order to minimize the pressure placed on other portions of the rider's body while seated on the bicycle. The bicycle saddle comprises a first seating portion that has been configured to allow a rider to sit on the bicycle, a second seating portion that has been configured to allow the rider to sit on the bicycle. The bicycle saddle also includes a first adjustment means configured to allow the first seating portion to be moved closer to the second seating portion, and a second adjustment means configured to allow the saddle to be moved closer to a forward portion on the bicycle.

For improving damping properties and aerodynamics of a bicycle seatpost, said bicycle seatpost substantially includes three elements. A support element includes a connecting member for connecting to a bicycle saddle, and a holding member for fixing to a seat tube. Said two members are connected to each other by a bending member. At the front side of the bending member, a damping element is adhered, in particular with its entire surface. The damping element is particularly partially surrounded by a shell-shaped form element.

A bicycle control device includes an electronic controller configured to control an operational state of an electric auxiliary drive to a manual drive driving force inputted to the bicycle. The electric auxiliary drive assists in travel of a bicycle based on an operational state of a suspension of the bicycle. The electronic controller controls the operational state so that the bicycle is assisted at an assist ratio of the electric auxiliary drive.
