Product Information

Full details

The Fidlock TWIST Uni Connector and Uni Base is designed for cyclists who want to mount non-standard bottles or containers to their frames without needing traditional bottle cage bosses. By combining magnetic-mechanical technology with the secure Boa Fit System, this kit allows you to transform almost any soft plastic bottle into a compatible Fidlock vessel, making it perfect for custom setups or bikes with limited mounting space. The primary caveat is that it is strictly designed for soft plastic bottles up to 80 mm in diameter, meaning it will not work with rigid metal or hard-walled hydration containers.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can I use this with stainless steel bottles?

No, the Uni Connector is designed specifically for soft plastic bottles up to 80 mm in diameter. It will not fit rigid metal containers.

Will this scratch my carbon fiber frame?

The base features a smooth rubber inlay specifically designed to protect frame surfaces from scratches.

Is the system compatible with older Fidlock bases?

Yes, the TWIST Uni system is fully compatible with all existing Fidlock TWIST base products.

What is the range of frame diameters supported?

The universal frame adapter fits tubes with a diameter between 28 mm and 62 mm.

Can the bottle be removed with one hand?

Yes, once the system is installed, the magnetic-mechanical design allows for one-handed operation while cycling.

Troubleshooting

Bottle feels loose or wobbles during riding

Check the Boa Fit dial tension and ensure the Uni Connector is securely tightened around the bottle circumference.

Bottle is difficult to remove from the base

Ensure you are applying a twisting motion rather than pulling directly outward, as the magnetic-mechanical lock is designed to release with a rotation.

Base slides on the frame tube

Ensure the rubber inlay is clean and the TPU cable ties are tightened sufficiently; if necessary, wipe the frame contact point with isopropyl alcohol.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Eliminates the need for traditional bottle cage mounting holes
  • Easy and quick adjustments using the Boa Fit System dial
  • Compatible with all legacy TWIST base systems
  • Protects frame finish from damage during installation
  • Universal fit for most bike frame tube sizes

Cons

  • Not compatible with rigid metal or hard-sided bottles
  • Limited to bottles with a maximum diameter of 80 mm
  • Requires periodic checks of the cable ties for security

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward and requires no complex tools. First, position the Uni Base on your frame tube—ensure the frame diameter is between 28 and 62 mm. Secure the base using the provided TPU cable ties, ensuring the rubber inlay is flush against the frame to maximize grip and protect your paint. For the bottle, place the Uni Connector around the body, tighten the Boa system, and confirm it is locked. Regularly inspect the cable ties for wear after heavy trail use and ensure the magnetic interface is free of debris like mud or grit, which can be wiped clean with a damp cloth to maintain the strength of the magnetic connection.
