Looking for a seat post mounted clip on guard for my Flyer.

Currently have a Zefal Swan

But the short length of the arm between guard and clamp and lack of forward (of the mounting arm) extension to the guard means my seattube cluster area still gets pretty wet (meaning water ingress into seatube/bb etc).

I think something with a longer arm and some forward extension would be better, something like this,

But that particular guard is SKS and all their clip on guards use an (according to the reviews) pretty rubbish cloth strap system to attach.

Any ideas? Or should I just fit RaceBlades?

I've seen some reasonable reviews of these. I was thinking of getting one myself. What's supposed to be the problem with the strap it looks very strong to me.

A lot of the reviews that mentioned the clamp said it was impossible to tighten it sufficiently to hold the guard in place and that subsequently it swings around the seatpost very readily.
