I'm not the craftsman many of you are. I am a pure function over form kinda guy. Just my genetics.
This is a rough mockup, until I can come up with screws with matching nuts.

A jerry-rig like that and Open Pavè tires. You gotta wonder....

Hey, if it works, it works, right? :thumb:

Why not just P-clamp it?

Because rhm told me it couldn't be done, and then sent along that nice piece of aluminum.

Ah! Context is everything :D

I like it. It works. But what is that two pronged wire poking forward that is mounted to the brake bolt?
Iguana skewer?

Nice offset! :thumb:

Looks like the remnants of a, er, I don't know what they're called. They sweep small debris off the tire before it can cause a puncture.

Tire saver? Yeah. Looks like one.

That is the remains of a tire saver. I have most of the rest of it, only lacking the one piece of tubing.

This mechanical wizard must share the sentiment...

The sentiment of "eeee---yeeee----owwww" comes to mind with this picture...

I just can't imagine that being functional for very long.

That's what I kinda figured.
Lemme know if you need some tubing, via PM.
Got plenty.

I picked up a cheap Pletscher rack a couple days ago from a swap meet and it is missing the mounting hardware. I'll need to rig up a bracket too. Nice handy work you got there.
