    REI Members get back an estimated 10% on this item as part of their annual member refund.

    The REI Member Dividend

    The REI dividend is a unique benefit of membership in the REI co-op. It's comprised of your member refund—typically 10% back on eligible purchases—and/or your REI Visa® card rebates.

    Each March, active REI members and REI Visa cardholders who earned a rebate receive a refund in the form of an annual dividend notice.

    Only active members receive annual dividend notices. To maintain your active status as an REI member, you need to make net merchandise or shipping purchases of at least $10 per year, unless you joined that year. Member numbers are issued in one name and only that person receives the member refund. Your number can be used by others in your family, but it cannot be transferred to someone else.

    Questions? Call us at 1-800-426-4840 for more about your dividend or its redemption.

      Comments about Novara Slider Cage:

      This cage is easy to get your bottle in and out of. But the down side, the weld that hold it together is very, very weak. I have snapped two of these in four months just from just from shouldering my bike to my apt. My last rack lasted 3yrs of abuse before it snapped at the mount.

        Comments about Novara Slider Cage:

        For only [$] it was a great addition to my road bike. Though I would also recommend buying the Novara water bottle to go with the holder because I found that other bottles don't really fit just as well. But still a great piece for the price!

          I didn't pay a lot for this item, but I also didn't think it should fall apart after being on my bike for two years. I know I haven't.

          Get something better.

          Comments about Novara Slider Cage:

          This is a nice metal design with a slightly flexible clip. It only fits bike-specific narrow bottles, not anything wider, so that restricts what kinds of bottles it can fit. I liked this cage, until I took a very minor fall in slippery wet conditions. The cage cracked where it is welded, and is now bent funny too. Wish it was slightly more durable, but otherwise still a nice cage for the money.

            Comments about Novara Slider Cage:

            New to cycling, outside of a decent bike, I did not want to invest too much on accessories. I actually checked out [...] bottle holders first. Shockingly, REI has the cheaper stuff. The holder looks and feels more expensive than [$]. Mounting no problem. Holding my bottle with just right pressure. No jiggling flying downhill at 35mph, and no problem picking up the bottle while riding with one hand.

                Not alot I can say, it works, grips water bottles well like its supposed to, super light weight and you can screw it on to a bike in about 30 seconds. if you want something cooler looking you can spend a few extra bucks but this gets the job done at a cheap price.
