I had to get creative to make it fit my bike, cutting aluminum strips to make shims...

Now it fits perfectly and it's solid. Yesterday was surprisingly warm, so I went for a ride. You can see the new brace in place. I like how you can watch the reflected countryside slide by in the polished aluminum.

The Stan Ridgeway tune comes from the Rumblefish soundtrack, which still holds up after all these years.
