Abstract

A seating system of improved comfort and effectiveness for use as bicycle seating, in particular, and body support, in general. The seating system provides support at the front and rear of the cyclist's hips. The rear support is at the sit bones and above the back of the thigh muscles. The rear support is complemented by a moveable support at the front of the waist. When a cyclist is seated, the front support holds up the forward leaning cyclist. When a cyclist rises to pedal in a standing posture, the front support rises with, and continues supporting the cyclist. When a cyclist sits down, the waist support can drop back down or remain up. When the front support remains up, the cyclist can stand on the ground while straddling the bicycle frame; thus allowing the cyclist stop and start pedalling in the normal position of straddling the bicycle frame.
