Berlebach Planet mounts in Australia?

Hi, I currently have a Skywatcher AZ/EQ6 mount and looking to either make it a bit more sturdier or just upgrade the tripod part of the mount.

I am planning to install a Skywatcher Esprit 150 on the mount.

I have been doing a bit of a search around and asking many questions which a lot of people are saying go for a Berlebach Planet mount

Dose anyone know who in Australia sells these mounts as from what i have rad, they appear to be one or the best sturdiest mounts and good vibration damping as well due to be wooden.

This was option 1

The other options were:
2. Geoptik Triangle for Tripods, basically a spreader bar down near the feet of the tripod legs
https://www.testar.com.au/collection...riangle-tripod
with what they call a Saddle upgrade by Geoptik

3. The AVALON T-POD 90 TRIPOD

Any advise either way would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Peter.
