Im not buying it in kit form - going to have a bash at making it myself.
Embarrasing as it is - having just moved house, i couldnt find a tape measure - tool shopping high on the to do list

The unfitted bracket i have was supplied with U-bolts made out of 6mm round bar,with 34mm centres which gives an inner width of 28mm,the overall height of the U-bolt is 50mm and the threads are 20mm long.The mounting holes are elongated on the bracket and it is made of 6mm plate. Sorry as this is as accurate as i can get with a tape measure
