Troubleshooting
Bottle rattles during ride
Ensure the bottle is fully seated in the cage and the cage screws are tightened securely to the frame. If the bottle is slightly smaller than standard, consider using a spacer or a different bottle.
Bottle is difficult to remove
Ensure you are using a standard-sized bottle. If the bottle is new and stiff, try flexing the cage slightly or practice removal until it loosens with use. Check that nothing is obstructing the bottle's path.
Cage screws won't tighten
Check that the screws are the correct size and thread type for your frame's bottle bosses. Ensure the bosses on the frame are not damaged or stripped.

Compatibility: This cage is compatible with most standard bicycle water bottles. For optimal performance and security, it is recommended to use bottles with a standard diameter.
