I can make them, and very well priced too. I am doing a casting run tomorrow and could churn out a couple, how much offset and what size seat tube? I could do it as just two clamps on a bar which would be easiest but might not look fancy, any other suggestions?

I think quality and reliability come before price on this item. You ever had a seat post break while riding...you end up being pulled into the frame from the back wheel..your nuts end being your new brakes... No fun...

OK, I'm rethinking having removed my fenders now....

Good idea there Wayne, I'm always impressed with your ideas. How is that new 2 speed working?
Hey, thanks for the compliments.

The 2 speed is working great, no issues at all except sorta pre-mature primary belt wear. Got 500 miles and it started breaking. Might be that I ran it too tight some. Dual belts would be better.
