Abstract: A bicycle-mountable carrier assembly includes a mounting assembly attachable to a rail of the bicycle's saddle. At least one payload support is joined, e.g., pivotably, to the mounting assembly. The payload support defines a structure for mounting at least one payload carrier attachment in a secure but removable fashion. One or more payload supports may be provided, and one or more mounting structures may be provided on each payload support. The mounting structures may be provided in a rear- and side-facing positions and in different angular orientations, for carrying of payloads in a variety of different positions and orientations. The carrier further includes at least one payload carrier attachment defining a mounting structure complementary to the payload support's mounting structure. The payload carrier may be adapted to function as a fishing rod holder, a fishing rod case holder, a water bottle, a fishing tackle box, or another payload as desired.

Abstract: A particulate composition wherein each particle thereof includes a first metal (e.g., tungsten), an optional second metal (e.g., tin), and a polymer binder (e.g., thermoplastic polyvinyl alcohol) is described. The first metal has a particle size of less than or equal to 10 ?m, and the second metal has a particle size of less than or equal to 20 ?m. The polymer binder is typically present in each particle of the particulate composition in an amount of from 0.5 to 2.5 percent by weight, based on the total weight of the particulate composition. The particulate composition has an average particle size of 25 to 300 ?m, and is free flowing. The particles of the particulate composition are preferably substantially spherical. Also described is a method of preparing the particulate composition by means of spray drying. The particulate compositions may be used to prepare molded articles, such as frangible projectiles (e.g., frangible bullets).
