I wasn't aware, food for thought. If only I could ride fast enough to take down one of the critters and produce it myself. But it's hard to get the momentum when you don't have pedals.
 
Stiffness is only in part defined by clamp diameter but also length of centre bulge as this dictates the length of the moment arm for the more flexible 22.2mm section.
