The activator lever is positioned a good distance below the seat pan. Much more of a reach than I would care for, especially since I use mine constantly throughout the day.

The D's Locks are a nice addition but, why didn't they fabricate them to work with the Roque wheels? I would guess the design of the Tempest wouldn't make it an easy job but, they should be able to work something out with the regular Rogue wheels. May be that most people are putting the Spinergys on their chairs?

Marvel is no longer making Rogue wheels.

my Rogues have alot of flex in them, so much that they sometimes pinch my thumbs to the carbon fiber side guards on a 3/4 inch spacing.
