Cage itself is great, and having storage for a 1.5l bottle on the bike means more miles and fewer stops but you'll need to use a toe-clip strap or similar to hold the top half of the bottle.

The elastic lasted 5 miles.

Check you've got frame clearance for a big bottle before buying.

Useful, But Weak Elastic

Great for touring as takes the standard 1.5 litre bottles of water that are available as standard in most shops and supermarkets. I will definitely keep this cage fitted (as well as a standard bottle cage).

After 1,000km the elastic looks ready to break and will have to be replaced somehow.

What Is The Maximum Diameter Bottle This Cage Will Take?

"Takes a 1.5 Litre bottle" sounds promising, but these could be long and thin. I have a 1litre bottle that has a 9cm diameter. This definitely doesn't fit into a standard cage.

If it will fit this one, you have a customer!

Hi,

This bottle cage can take larger diameter bottles as well as taller bottles and it should easily be able to cope with a bottle that is 9cm in diameter.

Thanks.

Do You Have A Distributor In The Us?

I would like to purchase but $20.00 USD per cage is a touch excessive.

SJS Customer Service:

Hi,

I'm afraid we don't have a US distributor and there is nothing we can do about the postage prices. We get charged volumetrically for items so although this cage doesn't weigh a lot it gets classed as a higher postage bracket due to its oversized size.

Thanks.
