The Limited EditionTakata Drift Pro LE office chair is a masterpiece of automotive seat engineering, creating an amazing lightweight, hybrid composite recliner. With a stunning pure carbon backrest, fine black leather with a subtle TAKATA Green diamond stitch pattern, high-density molded polyurethane foam, polished stainless steel chassis work, and the world’s best reclining mechanism – this seat re-defines the category of lightweight sport seats. All this is now available in the perfect office chair for the motoring enthusiast.
The uniqueness of the design lies in the combination of a steel alloy reclining seat base coupled with a composite reinforced backrest, in essence, a hybrid of the most advanced motorsport and road seats available today. The coupling of these two parts challenged engineering preconceptions and the solution was found in sourcing the world’s finest dual-sided infinite recline mechanism with tilt forward memory function and then fusing them to highly polished stainless steel chassis plates on each side of the structure.
Stress loading and zoning of the composite backrest to increase the torsional rigidity of the structure enabled engineers to produce a stronger and lighter seat than traditional steel-framed recliners with a typical 25% weight saving.
After all of this work, it would be sacrilege to hide the technology, so right down to the assembly detail of each of the eight individual stainless steel A2 cap screws and washers, the Drift Pro proudly displays its technical heritage.
Settle into it and you become one with the structure immediately almost unaware of its existence, the support is secure but non-intrusive. Finite adjustment of the recline angle and the optimum density of the progressive, perfect form polyurethane foam cosset you in unashamed luxury allied with a hitherto unknown level of lateral support from a seat that feels this good.
