High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! 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. It performs a similar role as a horse`s saddle, not bearing all the weight of the rider as the other contact points also take some of the load.
