Re: harness mounting

Wrap it on the backstay. it's stronger that way compared to a shear surface on a bracket.

Not by A ton, but much easier to install, less mess, and no chance of doing a bad and not easily repairable job.

Re: harness mounting

I'm going to hope that by backstay, you really mean harness bar.

I think of down bars when I hear back stay.
