when i was at ejc2002 in bremen i met a french guy who had built a handle that fixed onto the seat post, apparently he liked semcycle seats and wanted a handle.
when he described it to me it sounded like a dodgy design,
but the next day he brought his prototype along and it looked realy strong and solid.,
i can’t remember his name but he works for passe-passe (a french juggling shop)
the actual handle wasn’t very comfortable but it was still a prototype,
i got him to try my reeder handle, he liked it and thought about changing his design a bit.
he said he was thinking about making them and selling them through http://www.passepasse.com
its not on the site yet , but i’ll keep checking.
back to the steve howard handles,
i’d realy like a rear bumper, so i could build a non miyata, miyata airseat,
cf base reeder handle, reecycle cover, cnc bumper, air tube.
still expensive but i realy hate the idea of buying a miyata seat just for the rear bumper.
lifes too short to wait for the velo seat forever.
