We've been working hard the past few weeks to come up with some big changes to our vendor policies to meet the changing needs of our community. Please see the new vendor rules here: Vendor Access Area Rules

Might be better off posting in the vender access area so @Chad Rice can answer.
Patent issues from what I understand, sadly. I was looking forward to this platform...
Based on Chad’s recent comments on Facebook, the platform is still coming to market before this years hunting season. they had to do some design changes and are going through the retooling process at their manufacturer. One pic I saw had some extra bracing in the center. I don’t know if the changes are patent related.
Wonder when it will be released only thing I don't have is a platform been holding out for the angled front.
Check back in about two weeks. They are still making them and production will start shortly.
Patent adjustments and production adjustments have all been met and cleared.

Chad stated on an Instagram live steam earlier this week that they received the thumbs up from independent testing so that prompted the pre-order email to be able to go out on Friday. He also said 4-6 week lead time for delivery. Now that independent testing is complete, they can start production.
He also mentioned on that live cast that they have a stick in the works. Design is done and they are Searching for someone to manufacture it. No details were shared on the design.

Wait.. so no testing done on the unit that company X is going to produce??? I know they can build stuff to spec. But now they are gonna use the lowest bidder to build them. I'll let you guys work the problems out before I order one.
Personally I'm glad I do not sell ANY saddle gear. ANYTHING these guys say gets knit picked to death. This guy can't win. If you like a product, buy it. If not, don't. That easy.
My comment about finding a manufacturer was related to the stick.
they have a US manufacturer for the platform.

I agree. I wouldn’t lay out a pile of cash to pre-manufacture without completing testing first. One required change in the design could put a small company out of business otherwise. Now that they have completed that testing, they are set to ramp up production. If the CRUZR saddle is any indication, my guess is they will drive the lead time down in relatively short order. Chad stated that will be a priority.
I will retract my statement. I thought everything was about the platform in this section. I miss read the stick part. But anyone in the business world has to have thick skin. You can't let a bunch of talk hards on a forum or you tube drive your business. There are lots of people not on this forum who saddle hunt. Make a good product for a good price and let the sales do the talking. Every thing has a pro and a con. The seeker looks like a good platform. I'm sure it will sell well.
