APPARATUS OF ADJUSTING SADDLE ANGLE FOR BICYCLE
An apparatus adjusting saddle angle for bicycle includes an elastic member forward a central axis in a longitudinal direction of a seat post, a lower body coupled to the seat post and protruding forward to support the elastic member, and an upper body including a saddle coupling portion to the saddle, supporting upper end of the elastic member on upper portion, and hinge-coupled to the lower body to rotate in rotation axis such that the saddle angle is changed for the lower body fixed to the seat post by external force. The elastic member and the rotation axis are in front and rear of the centerline of the lower body, respectively. The saddle coupling portion is in front of the centerline of the lower body and rear of the elastic member, and above the rotation axis. Thus, saddle angle is easily adjusted to improve user's convenience and riding comfort.

Seat post head assembly
A seat post head assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a housing coupled to a seat post, the housing including a cylindrical bore, and a first and second threaded chamber. A rotatable core is inserted into and rotates within the cylindrical bore, the rotatable core including a seat rail clamp assembly to fixedly clamp a set of seat rails and provide independent adjustment of a fore-aft location of the seat without affecting a pitch of the seat. The assembly additionally includes a first threaded member that threads into the first threaded chamber, contacts the rotatable core, and adjusts the pitch of the seat without affecting the fore-aft location of the seat. The assembly also includes a second threaded member that threads into the second threaded chamber, contacts a different portion of the rotatable core, and provides a physical hard stop against a change in the pitch.

DROPPER SEATPOST HEAD ASSEMBLY
A dropper seatpost head assembly is disclosed. The assembly includes a lower post for insertion into a seat tube of a vehicle and an upper post having a housing coupled at one end thereof, the upper post to telescopically slide with respect to the lower post to form a dropper seatpost. The assembly also includes a saddle rail clamp assembly having a lower saddle rail clamping portion rotatably coupled with the housing and an upper saddle rail clamping portion to couple with the lower saddle rail clamping portion to form a clamping structure. The lower saddle rail clamping portion having a drooped shape such that the lower saddle rail clamping portion and the clamping structure hang down in a plane that intersects at least a portion of the housing.
Ergonomically designed bicycle saddle
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.
BICYCLE SADDLE WITH VIBRATION ISOLATORS
A saddle for a bicycle can be configured to provide improved vibration isolation performance. The saddle can include a saddle body. The saddle can include a plurality of isolators. The plurality of isolators can be operatively connected to the saddle body. Each of the plurality of isolators can include a stack of a plurality of conical springs. The stack of the plurality of conical springs does not include a central shaft.
