Not too many options unfortunately. You can get them, but they are a bit pricey.

Or you could go for the diy approach

I fitted cheap aftermarket recliner on OMP frame in my blob and absolutely loved it. Now I fitted some proper buckets on side mounted M2 rails and it is even better. My legs are not cramped anymore
