Unicycle Saddle Bag Hoops (For strapped rail mount bags)
Description
A simple saddle bag hoop designed to be attached to the bolts that hold on a unicycle saddle bumper. Designed to be printed on their back (hoop flat to the printer bed) so layer adhesion isn't an issue. These hoops are designed for bags with velcro straps that are meant to be used with saddle rails although they can also be used in a traditional setup with older bags by rotating the hoops 90°. If you have a bag with clips it won't work unless the clips can be removed from the end of the straps. In terms of strength, from my unscientific testing, I think the velcro or bag stitching will probably fail before the hoops. I'd still probably not recommend hanging touring bags off them, but those don't tend to have velcro straps anyway. By turning the loops around 180 so they're closer together, you can also use them to mount a top tube/small triangular frame bag, which gives a reasonable volume of storage with far less risk of collusion with the ground. Please note that this design currently only works with unicycles that have the bumper attached with machine screws (bolts). There's not enough space to get a socket or ring spanner in to tighten up a nut.
