First version is DONE. Made a few extra for friends and family. If anybody is interested I'm selling the rest for 15 + shipping. This version with bolt weighs about 20 grams. The next version will be boltless and more airy. Should be down around 12 grams. If you use a carbon spacer, plastic washer, above or below the hangar, you don't need to use a bolt. It stays in place perfectly and will not move when everything is tightened down. I've also had a request for a drop hangar, if there is enough demand I will make them. I figure about 30 dollars for those because of the extra time and materials involved. Another request was also for an adjustment barrel, I can do some of those too. Maybe 25. If you have an adjustment barrel already I can just make the hole it will thread into and that would be 20. Sooo, send a PM or email or whatever. Also, sorry about the pics, the finish is a matte beadblasted aluminum.

What will the drop hanger be like? How far a drop?
I was thinking an inch.
Any thoughts of making one of these for 27.2 seatposts? Some of us on small frames would love to have a rear brake hanger stop that was higher.
Yes there has been some thought because I cracked my canti boss off my moots. I'm a little concerned about the angle on the holder though. Would a straight up and down be acceptable for the cable guide?
for the seat post hanger:
I think it would be alright, there would be a bit of an angle / minor drag coming through. But if you did it with a threaded hole to allow using a threaded cable adjuster in it, the cable wouldn't be passing through as small an opening.
Hey TripleP, go over to the weight weenies cyclo forum for updates. Im posting picture and stuff over there. I hate to load servers with a ton of pictures unnecessarily
Cool. Which subject is it? I can't seem to find it in the WW CX forum...
Thank you Ann for the help. Also, I will draw up the design for the clamp this evening and make a tester Tuesdayish. I am waiting on feedback from somebody who purchased a regular clamp and would like to make sure it works for him first. That should be before Tuesday. So if it's a bit later that is the reason. Thx again.
