Definitely worth the price
I have had one of these cages in heavy use on my full-suspension bike for over a year now. There was doubt in my mind from remembering the old Ringle sheet aluminum cages that would crack, but plastic bottle cages are usually easily breakable. This one works great and has never lost a bottle- the cage part can be moved up so it supports the bottle from the middle, and the aluminum is reassuringly thick and rigid. I’m sure it will eventually fatigue and crack like all aluminum but for the money this seems like the best side entry cage to me.
Extremely universal bottle holder
Have them on two of my bike, my Salsa Cutthroat and Warroad. On the large Cutthroat I use it in the longer position, allowing 3 x 26oz bottles to fit and be stable in the frame triangle, on the Warroad the frame is a little more compact so I keep it in the shorter position with 2x22oz bottles on the down tube and 1 26oz bottle on the seat tube. I’m very happy with the flexibility of the cage to allow longer shorter and the ability to retrieve the bottle from the chosen side.
Fits small spaces.
I have these cages on most of our bikes right now. They're great for small frame triangles and you can set them up for right or left hand. They are a little light if you carry something ( like a Flask ) that's a little heavier off road but I run a Velcro strap around it to prevent noise or dropage.
Length adjustable, aluminum bottle cage
Nice bottle cage, expected nylon, but aluminum works well. You can reverse the side entry for right or left hand.
Bottle shredder
Clearly fully functional, but sharper edges chew up bottles worse than anything I've seen for a bottle cage.
SOLID AND AFFORDABLE
Solid and durable side mount bottle cage, great if fitting a bottle is tight in your frame, the only negative is set up because its made of two separate pieces so its harder to put on a bike frame. The bottle cage being two pieces ends up being a plus because it allows you adjust what side you can take bottle out of and the height of the cage.
Not the best for aggressive trail riding
This cage is made from a cheaper metal material and as a result the more it stretches the weaker it gets. The cage does not grip the bottle as much as other cages and I have lost water bottles on rough descents or drops. This cage is also rather heavy compared to other side loaders. What is nice is this cage is interchangeable from left to right loading. I think this is a decent cage, but does not suit my needs. I bought this cage to brand match my salsa Cassidy bike but I’m going to return it.
Fits well
Great cage. Can switch from left to right. Fits small spaces.
Works well for me!
This was the perfect solution to my bike with a tight triangle frame. I was struggling to find a way to make a top entry cage work properly on my bike.
Lite and perfect
Perfect bottle cage for my new Salsa bike. The cage held my water bottle in place even on a rough gravel road trail. I love the side access.
