Is this "speed unit" some kind of warning device?  I see lots of references to the bracket, but not much on the device itself.

I must admit to being a bit skeptical about the notion that the loom "rubber band" is meant to hook on the speed stay bracket, even though that's the way mine came to me.  It's a pretty awkward fit; the angle isn't right for either end of the strap:

There's a bottom tab on the frame which seems to be designed to receive the lower end of the strap; I don't have a photo of it but when utilized, the strap lines up much better with its upper tab:

I came across this SB today; I’ve had it all along :-[
