Claim:
1. A bicycle seat, comprising: a body comprising a rigid support portion formed from a hard material and a seat cover formed from a soft material, wherein a deformation space is located between the rigid support portion and the seat cover, the deformation space includes a top and a bottom; and a plurality of filler particles that densely fill the deformation space, wherein the plurality of filler particles are restricted in the deformation space; wherein the deformation space is enclosed at the top by a portion of the seat cover that defines the deformation space and enclosed at the bottom by a portion of the rigid support portion, the deformation space protrudes into the rigid support portion without going through the rigid support portion; wherein the filler particles are freely disposed in the deformation space, each of the filler particles is independently displaceable within the deformation space when a sufficient pressure is applied to an area of the seat cover corresponding to the location of the deformation space.
