I just bought a G11 and I am mounting a C11 and 120mm ED refractor SBS. I got the local made version of the SBS plate from Telescopes and Astronomy and I'm using Losmandy D series bars on the saddles. I was concerned that the locallly made saddles would flex, but the unit seems solid and the Losmandy saddle on the G11 extends well along the SBS bar. The feature I do like is the ability to side load an OTA on the local version rather than slide it down a Losmandy saddle. With a substantial OTA weight, that ain't easy... and I am pretty strong. Give the local a go if you can; even if it does not meet your needs, the resale will be very good.
