Not sure, don't exactly know what the standards it adheres to consist of so don't know if it is designed to fail in a certain way to avoid damage/injury or if it is stiff enough to be considered part of the wheel assembly, in which case you could end up with a broken camera or it may throw off your steerer. It looks like it's designed for road use primarily (well that's what all the pictures are of so far, that and Greig who designed it is very much a road bike rider) so I think the chances of clipping something are minimized. I wouldn't use it offroad as that would just be asking for trouble!
