Hi Manfred,

Do you guys still manufacture the seats?, I am looking for a profile tube and a set of seats, can you help?

Hi Alpha-A-Sierra

Manfred no longer does the seats, in 2008 when I rebuilt I had to buy the new seats from Jenya as Manfred had given his patterns to him. In 2008 new seats for the Raptor from Jenya were around R1800.00 each. Profile tube will still be from Manfred.

From what I have been told, he was sick & tired of CAA and their bullsh!t.

A great pity as he built an excellent and strong trike.

At least he is still selling the spares.
