After se digging, I found the same thread over in the SCTF archives http://www.larrybiggs.net/scwf/index.php?mod=103&action=0&id=1147961839
It seems like the list goes something like this from thickest to thinnest:
Shauer Artus - 5.2mm $490.
Another Timedesign (I think) - 5mm 400+ euros.
Omega Mesh - 4mm or slightly thicker, under $200 at O Frei.
Jurgens Monster Mesh - 4mm $185.
Stowa Milanaise - $145, unknown thickness.
Many in the 3 - 3.5mm range.
Found some on ebay at 22mm wide 2.8mm thick around $26.99 and a 20mm wide 3.4mm thick for $21.99!
I think I will go with the Omega, as I like the way the mesh links encompass the springbar instead of using a tube. I like the look and it allows me to squeeze it into a 21mm Doxa lug :D Plus in my opinion, it seems that the Omega has a coarser weave, more openess and therefore more texture than the German models which look to be "flattened" somewhat. Maybe it is my imagination.
Thanks again for all your help!
