Extended Product Information

FAQs

Will this cage fit an oversized thermos-style bottle?

No, this cage is designed specifically for standard cycling water bottles ranging from 500ml to 750ml.

Are mounting bolts included?

No, the cage is typically mounted using the existing bolts found on your bike frame.

Is the material brittle?

The recycled plastic used is a specialized, durable polymer engineered to resist fatigue and cracking under normal cycling conditions.

Can I mount this on the seat post?

This cage is designed for standard frame mounts. It will not work on a seat post unless you have a dedicated seat post bottle mount adapter.

Does it work for both road and mountain bikes?

Yes, its secure retention system is designed to perform reliably on both smooth pavement and technical trails.

Troubleshooting

Bottle feels loose in the cage

Ensure you are using a standard-sized bicycle water bottle between 500ml and 750ml; oversized or non-standard shapes may not seat properly.

Cage rattles while riding

Check the mounting bolts and tighten them firmly with a hex key; if the rattle persists, check if the bottle itself is colliding with the frame.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight at 36g
  • Eco-friendly manufacturing process
  • Excellent bottle retention on rough terrain
  • Compatible with standard frame mounting

Cons

  • Not compatible with non-standard bottle shapes
  • Matte recycled finish may not match all bike aesthetics
  • Does not include mounting bolts

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation is straightforward using standard M5 hex bolts provided with your bicycle frame. Simply align the cage with the two mounting holes on the down tube or seat tube and tighten until secure. Avoid overtightening, as excessive force can deform the plastic mounting interface. To care for your cage, simply wipe it down with a damp cloth and mild soap during your regular bike wash. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents, as they may degrade the recycled plastic over extended periods. Periodically check that the mounting bolts remain tight after significant rides on rough surfaces.
