I'm sorry for linking to Buzzfeed.
It's Time We Talked About Bicycle Seat Face
*dings bicycle bell on my way to see your man*

The most obvious sign is a significant concavity that results in a cheek line (what is a better word for it if it exists?) that leads onto a chin rather than one than one that dissipates somewhere upon the mandible. A tall chin completes the look. As you can see, Barrett's cheek line dissipates.
That effect is in conjunction with a curved jawline. As you can see Barrett's jawline from gonion to chin is perfectly straight. As a result he has perfect profile harmony and does not have a bike seat face. His chin has a solid foundation. His profile is very harmonious, straight, and angular:
HOWEVER, bike seat faced people don't have straight jawlines they have unharmonious and curved jawlines:
Neglect Tim's flatter maxilla as I do not think it is relevant. As you can see, his chin seems to protrude from his mandible as if it were hanging off. His jawline does not come into the tip of his chin to create a solid and harmonious foundation. There is a slight hollowness connected by visible skin that is not ideal that is almost completely absent in Barrett. People with bicycle seat faces have poor side profiles. He has a hanging chin.
Why does this curve occur? For some reason their ramus angle is too low (though that is supposed to be a good thing) for their face and the jaw is forced to grow this curve to meet the chin. It is due to a recessed mandible per @Pillarman .
On a related note, this is Orb's biggest failo.
I'm sorry for criticizing Timothee and his appearance I want to be him .
The number one sign you have an antegonial notch:
Only the top of your teeth show when you smile. Somerhalder is the extreme example. Look up pictures of him smiling, his is very creepy. orb still mogs 99% of this forum to death.
