Would anybody be interested in an "on-the-fly" adjustable lumbar support belt? Just trying to get an idea if there is a market for our belt in the sport touring community.

Is lower back pain preventing you from riding those long rides? Is a flimsy kidney belt not supporting your lower back? (It's not designed to) You need our Smart Back Belt. It's a lumbar back support belt with "on-the-fly" lumbar adjustments. You can tighten and loosen while riding!

--Why, yes....
Is a flimsy kidney belt not supporting your lower back?
--No, it isn't!!!
You need our Smart Back Belt.
--I do?!?!
It's a lumbar back support belt with "on-the-fly" lumbar adjustments. You can tighten and loosen while riding!
--THAT IS AWESOME!!!
Actually looks like a cool design but how would you adjust it "on the fly" if it is under your jacket? A little setback but may work well.

As far as I know your best option is a Gold Belt. Not a true adjust on the fly but a quick stop will do the job. Don't wear one all the time but mine is going on 20 years old and still does the trick.

Adjustable like a pump that inflates a ball on the lumbar? I would be very interested in something like that.

On second thought, I bet that the adjustment won't happen as much as I originally thought. I may have to adjust my belt at the 1st gas stop but it is usually set after that.
A second suggestion (did I give a 1st?) is to lower the shipping. $11.41 shipping is a little steep for a backbelt.

At the WI State Fair there's usually a booth selling a support belt with two loops that you put over each knee whe you're in a sitting position. The loops are an elastic material with aslide mechanism which allows you to increase / decrease the tension...and the support. They market them to duck hunters, fishermen, etc...always thought that would be a useful accessory if I were looking to do an Iron Butt or other such endurance ride.
May want to check Cabela's, Bass Pro Shop, or Sportsmans Warehouse websites to see what might be available....

Nothing wrong with that if it's a valid product being targeted to potential customers with need.
Selling a valid product is WAY higher on the "that's ok" list than nigerian scammers and web-site parkers.

So it's OK if everybody under the sun jumps in here with a "valid product" to sell is what you're saying.
Who's to say what a valid product is? To me, this belt is a medical item. I have a bad ankle. Some people get raw, red monkey butt from long days in the saddle.
So if two more posters came in here selling a new kind of ankle brace or a butt cream that would be OK?
Unsolicited advertisement by individuals posting simply for the sake of hawking their sh*t in web forums is and has been pretty much universally
frowned upon and decreed as SPAM.
It would be different if the guy was hanging around for a while, part of the forum, and pointed out a link to his product
in a post. The guy posted only for the sake of selling his product. 2-1 he doesn't give a rat's ass about motorcycle riders
specifically.
Probably posted in construction forums, mason's forums, trucker's forums, geriatric forums etc. etc.
The mods (Dred) have spoken anyway and I'm just reiterating. I'm surprised that the thread hasn't been deleted.

Well, if it's in the vendor section (where it belongs and where this one should be) and it's a product that's useful to riders... hell yes.

In the vendor section, with the blessing of site admin, go for it.
And no, my business doesn't cold-contact and hawk our services in web forums. Ever. You know nothing about my business.
