Unhappy Anyone have a Seat Stay bracket?

I'm on the search for a Seat Stay bracket, AKA "That thing that holds up the double seat" - It's sort of "H" shaped, and it bridges the gap between the double seat and the rear fender stays. The bracket my CA95 came with is cobbled together out of bolts and strap steel. I haven't had any luck on ebay finding a replacement...

Anyone switch to a saddle seat and have a bracket to spare/sell?

Here is one on eBay for a CA160 that will fit your CA95 as well.

Should I start producing these? Seems like a LOT of people are needing them.

If you are making some seat stays, I'll take one, mine is cracked in 2 places. Seems like a poor design. Meanwhile, I'll just make do and re-drill it.

Did you start making those seat supports? If you did and have any left, I would sure like to acquire one if possible.
Thanks,

Default Last time we communicated

I was in Wisconsin. Back in Texas now with my Benly. Bought a dry battery while gone and have it ready to wet up with acid and install.
I believe during our last contact we were discussing Cushman Eagles from the 50's.
Anyhow, as soon as a get a current antique fan restored, I'm going to start on my Benly. One of my serious questions when we were last communicating was your mfg. of the seat holders for a CA95. Any progress on that project yet. If so, let me know.
Thanks,
Dick Evins

Funny that I emailed you while you were probably typing your posts here on the forum! I'll update you very soon as we are working on final dimensions for this little 3D bracket.
