Abstract
A bicycle seat cover with which friction on the bicyclist is minimized. This end result is achieved by providing the cover with a compliant central portion which may be fabricated of a polyurethan foam, this central portion having a middle layer thereover of a low friction material, such as a polyethylene, and finally an outer layer over the polyethylene layer which is of soft material and which has an inner surface of low friction material, such as an acrylic resin coating, and an outer surface of a soft material, such as a suitable nylon. The outer cover fits over the bicycle seat and has an elastic ring-shaped band on the bottom portions thereof which grips the cover to the bicycle seat.
