Bianchi Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 Yes. I use the thicker black chromed bicycle spokes (2.2mm?) bent into a double-T shape in a jig and up to 100mm wide woven elastic band. A robust sewing machine helps as well. Can upload a pic later.

M99 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 The one pictured is the TRG one from Vertabrae. I've got a couple of them and they are very good. Fast delivery and easy to use. But the trg already has a stud on the brake. You can buy rings with a stud that fits on a mod to attach the band too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swarovski1 Posted April 24, 2015 Report Share Posted April 24, 2015 A mirage band is going to affect accuracy I would imagine as is changes the harmonics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
