Abstract

Bicycle seat or also known as bicycle saddle is one of the important parts in the design of a bicycle. Failure to design bicycle seat can cause extreme pain to the riders. The objectives of this investigation were to design a reliable and comfortable seat for bicycle due to the pain suffered by sport bicycle users and perform the stress analysis or Finite Element Analysis (FEA) on the developing concept design and the existing seat by using Computer Aided Design (CAD) software to compare both results. This analysis was conducted to determine the strength level of the bicycle seat. The researches were carried out by referring to the engineering and medical journals, books, and websites. At the end of this research, a design concept has been developed and the comparison of both products which exist and new seat concept design with the value of von mises stress and translational displacement showed the capability of the new concept are strong enough and acceptable.
