I think I read somewhere they indeed stopped making the new model because they break. Although the Expedition size seems to be holding up, from what I've heard, as it has thicker tubing than the Sport.
The steel rod on my bagman has some indents at the ends for the bolts. I believe they started making them that way a couple of years ago. Could've just made the whole clamp of steel and weld it, like they did the aluminum one. Here's someones review with picture of the holes for the bolts.
Easier access than on a bikepacking tyle bag. And doesn't sway like those often do. And pretty much waterproof.
