Yeah, I should just use Paragon DR2102 really
I just would like to be in control of things aesthically. But its not a smart way to run a business.

What you actually need to do is become the EU version of Paragon. But that is another scale all together :)
There are actually some nice builders throughout the EU making interesting stuff, if someone could consolidate it all into a EU shop by and for builders could also be a nice thing. I imagine makers like making stuff, not taking up the hassle of admin of selling stuff themselves.
You could turn down some stainless threaded bushings to not have to thread the frame. Butt everything would get even larger and require more work in the end without any real benefit. It all sounds like over complicating things when you can just go the UDH route and I do love some standardization.
Also the disclaimer here is that I am looking at the problem from my experience as an engineer working in heavy duty automotive industry with no affinity to bike making whatsoever. We tend to overreach just a bit. :)
