it is the inflation thingy on a shock fork. A lugged shock fork crown.

Michael, I have heard nothing from you since I claimed the BM Ixon light

I wouldn't mind seeing a more deliberate/integrated front rack/LG Wald

Hi Michael,
I'm pretty sure that the hoop will not interfere with the Nitto Mini or
Mark's rack. Here's a look at the HAR v1 and Nitto Mini. I'm guessing that
the only difference with HAR v2 is the hoop tab-- if that's the case, this
pic shows that HAR won't interfere with the front rack.
Could be, an alternate means of joining fork tubes to crown. I wonder how
hard to make a fork and crown and steerer and head tube that could all
accept and pass through a wire from a dyno hub? It would be a neat way to
get the voltage back through the frame and to a rear light. With an offramp
