So today I took my Outback out for the second time. I was in the low position seat completely upright. When I set the hook on a bull red, the seat back fell back a bit. Afterwards I began to adjust seat back, back and forth and it locked in however the right side still feels loose and flimsy. Like the tension cord is out of whack. Any suggestions

Have your dealer take a look. Is the pin setting in the rack on both sides in the front? Are you at the lowest setting in the rear? Or is one of the legs retracted vs the other in the back?

Mmiller, it sounds like str8up50 is saying the seat back reclined. My Vantage CT seat just started doing this. I haven't had time to investigate or bring it to my dealer. Over a few hours of pedaling, the seat back slipped back several times and I had to reset it.

I am not familiar with this issue - so we're asking that you return to the dealer for help - curious how much people weigh who've experienced this 'slippage'?
