Even with different shaped downtubes I would think some company could come up with one...this is simple technology. A loop of velcro wrapped through the front wheel and around the downtube would be the prototype of this technology I'd think. It isn't often you see great simple technology fade out with no replacement. Odd.
You can google for a photo...here's one I found.
