Claim:
1. An apparatus comprising a seat on which a user of a device is to sit while pedaling, the seat including a rigid transverse beam that is to lie parallel to an axis that passes through the femur sockets of the pelvic bone of the user as pedaling of the user sitting on the seat causes the axis to yaw and roll relative to the device, the transverse beam having a central axis that extends laterally relative to the direction in which the user faces while on the seat and pedaling, and a coupling element configured to be located vertically below the central axis of the transverse beam when the user is on the seat and pedaling, to couple the rigid transverse beam to a frame of the device, and by operation of the coupling element to enable simultaneous yawing and rolling motion of the rigid transverse beam about the coupling element in synchrony with the axis that passes through the femur sockets as the user is on the seat and pedaling.
