Seat Suspension
Suspension may be implemented at the saddle either using a suspension saddle or a suspension seatpost.
The effectiveness of saddle or seatpost suspension depends on the rider placing their weight on the saddle. For this reason, this style of suspension is most popular on more upright styles of bicycle, where the rider spends much of the time sitting.
