Abstract
A seat mounting assembly include a tilt adjustment system wherein the angle of a link on which saddle is mounted may be adjusted via a saddle tilt adjusting mechanism that interconnects base and link members at a position spaced from a moveable connection between the link and base member. The tilt adjusting mechanism is formed by a position adjusting element for adjusting the relative position of the link and base and an independent locking element that unlocks the adjusting mechanism independent of position adjusting element so that the position adjusting element may be then be independently adjusted to adjust the relative position of base and link members from a relative position preset by the adjustment mechanism so that the adjustment commences from the location of the previous adjustment thereby facilitating seat adjustment and accurate repositioning.
