edirb 171
Almighty sports reclining seat with a focus on comfort that balances ease of getting on and off and hold.
The edirb 171/172 is a premium sports reclining seat based on the BRIDE STRADIA III, with a bone frame newly designed by 3D-CAD and a monocoque body shell that inherits the design of the BRIDE ZETA IV. Compared to the 033, the frame has 200% more tensile strength, 40% more overall strength, and 15% more backrest strength. It is a new generation reclining seat that combines the hold performance required for circuit driving and the convenience and comfort required for daily use at a high level.
The seat and thigh cushions are made of a specially designed high-density molded urethane foam that evenly applies pressure to the flat seat surface, ensuring high holdability and long-lasting comfort. It is a highly durable sheet that does not cause fatigue even when used, and does not easily sag. In addition, edirb 171/172 have different models due to differences in thigh cushions. edirb 171 has a moderately thick "standard cushion" specification, and the thickness of the back of the knee is reduced to two-thirds of the standard cushion. Low cushion" specification is edirb 172.
The shell is a highly rigid super aramid black shell, and the skin material is composed of three materials: protein leather, ultra suede, and vegan leather [Bigaprimo], and is a safe specification that supports antibacterial sterilization / deodorization. In addition, a seat sensor is mounted on the seat surface. (Some models may not be compatible.)
Newly designed one-touch reclining lever and inseam belt hole for circuit driving
The edirb161/162 and edirb171/172 use a newly developed one-touch reclining lever in pursuit of operability, convenience, and durability. The backlash and looseness are suppressed to the utmost limit while being adjusted step by step, realizing a more secure hold and comfort. In addition, a belt hole for a 6-point harness is newly installed on the back of the seat, and it is designed with consideration for circuit driving. (The edirb161/162, which emphasizes holdability, has a slightly smaller hole size than the edirb171/172 in order to suppress the movement of the belt.)
Adoption of new material vegan leather [Viga Primo]
In addition to the protein leather and ultra suede that have been used in the conventional edirb series, a new artificial leather that reproduces the genuine leather structure without using animal-derived materials, vegan leather [Biga Primo] is used. It is soft to the touch, yet has excellent durability and maintainability, so it is used on the top surface of the third support, which is prone to rubbing when getting on and off.
