BICYCLE SADDLE SEAT : SADDLE SEAT BICYCLE SADDLE SEAT : MOUNTAIN BIKING PARTS : GIANT BICYCLE FRAMES. Bicycle Saddle Seat bicycle saddle A bicycle saddle, often called a seat, is one of three contact points on an upright bicycle, the others being the pedals and the handlebars. The bicycle saddle has been known as such since the bicycle evolved from the draisine, a forerunner of the bicycle. seat The roughly horizontal part of a chair, on which one's weight rests directly A sitting place for a passenger in a vehicle or for a member of an audience A thing made or used for sitting on, such as a chair or stool be able to seat; "The theater seats 2,000" a space reserved for sitting (as in a theater or on a train or airplane); "he booked their seats in advance"; "he sat in someone else's place" show to a seat; assign a seat for; "The host seated me next to Mrs. Smith" Giamč Intgrated Saddle/Seat Post Combination 1950s Italy This extremely rare integrated saddle post combo is likely the ancestor of the better known Unica-Nitor design introduced in 1959. This saddle is of leather construction while the Unica-Nitor saddle was made of plastic. Update - Thanks to Marco Gios of Giostorino.it fame, we learn that Antonio and Agostino Giame were two brothers who worked as framebuilders at Gios. Antonio was a very smart and brilliant inventor. This saddle is an example of that. Thanks to Angel Garcia of Italian Cycling Journal blog for forwarding me this great background information on this cool invention. The only other known example of a Giame Intgrated Saddle/Seat Post Combination is on Coppi's 1958 racing bicycle on display in the Museo di Campionissimi, Novi Ligure. Saddle frame and headset assembly - first experiment This saddle frame looks like an ideal rocking chair base. Alas, the leverage of a wide seat compared to a very small saddle footprint makes the seat roll around like a boat on high sea in a storm. The white substance is Polymorph, mouldable plastic, which allows the headset to sit snuggly in the base.
