I have a (very nice) frame top part that roger made, but it still has the bendy aluminium legs and brake mounts that twist out when you apply any braking force beneath it. With all the magura mounting gubbins it isn't so bad, but it'd be nice not to have to run on standard mounts - it's a big old hack. It also only really works on mine with the maguras on the mounts at an angle because the funny brake mounts don't have a back in the same place as normal ones.

I was thinking drill two holes, same as on the proper frame, one big on the outside, one small on the inside - rather than hose clips - I seem to remember Dave tried hose clamps with no much success.
