Each seat comes with a 7-year structural warranty. seatsinc.com Posture-aligning seat Knoedler's NuChief seat features an insert with patented geometry and properties that tilt the the pelvis to help optimize spinal posture and maximize comfort. The ProBax cushion is designed to help prevent rearward tilting of the pelvis and relieve tailbone pressure. Sitting with correct spinal posture stacks the spine as though standing, which helps improve blood flow and respiratory efficiency while increasing blood oxygenation. knoedler.com Vibrationneutralizing seat Bose's Ride system driver's seat is designed to sense vibrations and neutralize them with highspeed adjustments to the seat's suspension. Packed into the seat's base are sensors, a microprocessor, a power amplifier, a linear electromagnetic actuator and an energy storage system.
