        now that i have got your attention, could someone give me some advice i have a D36 st but one of my back legs doesnt seem to screw tight. during a match it will move (not due to my weight) it is only one of them any ideas.

            Prop the corner up on bricks or sell it and buy a Fox MSB Euro. ~clap

                Pull out the screw thread section that fits inside the frame and replace if needed. They are only a few quid.It could also be the tightening knob that needs replacing. Don’t worry about it as ALL seatboxes are prone to leg slippage at some time or another,

                      Sounds like the tightening knob. they are cheap and easy to replace.

                          they are cheap and easy to replace

                          Is that the knob or the box itself?

                            Its easy to replace the knob, how many other boxes can be fixed so easily and cheaply. My rive has had a lot of stick and is still going strong. I dont mind spending £6 for 2 new knobs at least i know i can get spares.

                                                  Although i had a seat cushion made for my rive as i found the original uncoftable,it is the best box on the market for looks and stability,it took me a long time to decide on my purchase and at first i thought i made a big mistake as regards to the seat cushion but once resolved ive grown to love my d36 rs sport and would not change it.
