I would love to see a version of these in an offset. As tempted as I am to pick up some of these I'd find it almost irresistible to pass up an offset hanger version.

In that one photo they look a lot like a Bennett.

Here is a revision. About 25 people showed up for the race. They got about two runs in and someone DID call the cops. Something about distracting the neighbors???
