Hi Mike,

Take a look at our website X-Craft Shock Mitigation Boat SeatsX-Craft Suspension Seats | Suspension Seats | Dutch Design, Dutch Craftmanship.
We build extremely strong and comfortable seats for a very competitive price.

you can mail me at info@xcraft.nl for pricing.

Cheers - how much would a pair of the x-system suspension units cost? The base units where you add your own seat?

Cheers

I know a member of the Forum is developeing his own 'Brand' of suspension seat,which should represent good value in the near future.
He may well post when he see's this.

get some mountain bike rear suspension shocks and build your own - maybe?

[MikeL]

I was thinking of that - you can get cannondale quad links for £15 each (wishbone shaped) and a coil shock for £50 and i know a man who works alloys.

that's the spirit!

It might be quit an interesting project - you can get very cheap mountain bike rear shocks complete with preload and dampening.

you could look at Scot Seats. We have been happy with them . Good after sales service

Hi Mike,

Our aim is to produce the highest performance seats available, at a lower price, with a focus on simple design principles, and modern high volume manufacturing processes (such as injection molding).

I hope you find they fit the bill, although it's been a while since you posted up.

Here is a link to a quick intro:

Any questions just let me know,
