Default Clamp crossbar mount

This seems to work fairly well and doesn't shake or vibrate. You can get these assembled from eyeofmine.com or you can get the clamp from Bessy tools (XV5-100) and make one of these fairly easily. I didn't like the orange color of the original handles so out came the plasti-dip can (not spray). Plasti-dip made a huge difference in how well it grips the crossbar. I'm going to make my own bracket for the end of the clamp that is a little sleeker looking. I'm also looking for a slip knot cord to attach to the clamp in case of a crash. It grips really well but you just never know.
