^I've seen this before. I'm looking for something a little more "subtle", to put it mildly. I've putzed around with it and it seems that the laces in the middle of the mounting points of the rails will do nothing but frustrate me when I go to install the saddle. I'm hoping that someone has actually done this lacing, subtly, with either a Swallow or a Swift, which doesn't interfere with putting the thing on the seatpost!
Thanks for the opportunity to contrast what has been done with what I'm actually trying to achieve.
