I have got the new 2010 st pack plus , and yes it is very worth it , fantastic bit of kit!!

Yes mate got one they are heavy but solid as tbh . It will cost you alot though for extra trays etc and it can become an obsession but it should last you for years or at least til they bring out a newer model.

I always go for the base model ST and then build up. It’s a personal choice but I detest that anodized finish as it looks OK to start but soon gets chipped and worn. TBH the grey frame and traditional silver trays etc!! does it for me,

I fancy the brown adodised frame? although think its the 2009 model?

best seat on the market by far its an awesome bit of kit, the only let down is that the base of the seat is made out of mdf and when it gets wet it swells and the mdf miss shapes which in turn makes the side drawer very hard to shut and open when your sat on it. so what i just did was to make the bases out of marine ply then gave them 3 coats of a good varnish and un stapled the leather material and re stapled it to the ply, this will last a life time now.

i tell all rive owners another thing is to purchace the add on back bag as this really makes the seat box well balanced when pulling it along the bank.

do they still make some of the draws from wood, the rx i had 3-4 yrs ago was shocking!!! it had 4 draws and everyone of em swelled up and got stuck if a swung in roach as much as splashed on them!!!! not good on a expensive box. or are they plastic now???

[TF_piperpilot]

Only plastic wooden fronted draws now but I agree those wood draws were terrible,

[TF_Joe Carass]

ye they where mdf too which only made the problem worse
