METHOD FOR PRODUCING A BICYCLE SEAT, APPARATUS USED IN SAID PROCESS AND BICYCLE SEAT PRODUCED THEREBY

A device for individualizing a bicycle seat comprises a plurality of individually moving parts collectively having the shape of at least the top surface of a generic bicycle seat, the individually moving parts being movable relative to one another in the x-, y- and z-directions to adjust the generic bicycle seat to an adjusted final position that suits the individual comfort tastes of the user of said individualized bicycle seat; and a plurality of sensors connected to the plurality of individually moving parts to detect all adjustments made to the generic bicycle seat to achieve the adjusted final position. Information from the sensors can be downloaded to a computer to form a 3D data file that can be 3D-printed to an individualized bicycle seat. The invention also relates to a method of using the device, the individualized bicycle seat produced, and to a bicycle containing the individualized bicycle seat.
