Sean,
I just noticed that the bench/seat on the back of your Bombi has "YAN" built into the seat back. That would likely indicate it's actually a chair from a ski lift. You probably already knew that, but do you know the safety record of that company?
From Wikipedia:
Lift Engineering, more commonly known as
Yan Lifts, was a major
ski lift manufacturer in
North America. Founded in 1965 and based in
Carson City,
Nevada, the firm came under scrutiny by state safety officials after a fatal accident in 1985, and filed for
Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in July 1996 after multiple other accidents resulting in 3 deaths.

The company built at least 200 fixed-grip chairlifts,[

[2] The company's lifts have been involved in the deaths of five people and the injury of at least 70, the worst record of any ski-lift maker operating in North America.
After a series of accidents, Yan Lifts were outlawed in certain states including California and Colorado. The company filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in 1996. Eventually, Yan Lifts manufactured new track and cables for the
Angels Flight funicular, but the company, now called YanTrak, went out of business in 2001 after a major accident.

The last chairlifts yan in Iran, Isfahan city, was rebuilt and re-installed, in area forest_najvan park by yan 7 grip (designe pol X west).in year 2013 And now it's in operation.
Only one Lift Engineering Detachable remains after La Roca, the last unmodified Lift Engineering chair, was scrapped following an accident similar to the notable one at Whistler. This lift can be found at the Nazhvan Forest Park in Iran, and, unlike La Roca, is lift is a re-installation from Silver Star with the safer Pol-X-West grips.
