This is kind of an experiment. It's really light right now and if I don't have to over-build it I don't want to.

i also did some thing a little different, to keep all the force from being put on the all thread instead of making the mount at the swing arm bolt just a flat piece i made it a 90* so it not only sat flat on the frame but it also sat against the side too ..

Indeed...and there's a chance I may have to do the same.
I've also considered taking pieces of round tubing who's inside diameter matches the outside diameter of the frame mounts, placing them so they "cup" the frame mounts and distribute force over a larger surface area. Kind of hard to explain...

My concern is the cage folding up.
