1. A saddle attachment device, comprising:
a base member including:
a lower surface adapted to engage with a seat post assembly,
a plurality of index slots;
at least one attachment member assembly, the attachment member assembly including:
at least one attachment member, including a recess adapted to partially receive a saddle rail;
first and second clamps, each including a recess adapted to partially receive a saddle rail; and
a fastener for coupling at least one attachment member to said first and second clamps; and
a locking assembly including
a locking shaft, and
a rotatable biasing member;
wherein the biasing member of the locking assembly is configured to bias the locking shaft of the locking assembly to engage at least one of the plurality of index slots of the base member, thereby fixing the rotatable relationship between the base member and the attachment member assembly; and
wherein the locking shaft of the locking assembly is configured to be displaced in a first direction upon the application of a biasing force on the biasing member, whereupon the base member and the attachment member assembly are rotatable in relation to each other.
