What a pricky comment. Like I said, I have no intension to sell or produce anymore of these clamps. The kind of H&S testing you are talking about is disproportional. It is a bodge for myself. I tested it myself under no scientific conditions to be confident that if it stops my fat ass under heavy braking it should be fine for my tiny girlfriend. It is being used as a temporary solution on a fixed gear bike and is not the only means of braking.
Cool.. cheers for that.. I hadn't read it before. Some nice ideas there. The original clamp is quite similar to the one I built albeit much more complex. The key being the shoulder which goes into the steerer tube. In retrospect I should have made it integral to the clamp and much longer.. but seems to work fine as it is, as a temporary solution. Thanks
