Review on ๐Ÿถ RML System Profile Design Bottle Holder, Black, One Size, 3590360 by Ben Chase

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Fits on my Brompton

Jun 13 - Rating changed from 5 to 3 stars. The problem with the cage design is that if you hit a bump and the bottle bounces 1cm up, the bottle stays 1cm up. When you hit another bump, it goes up and stays there. Until the bottle falls out. The mount is good with different angles so still 3 stars but the problem is the cage. I just replaced them with cheap Decathlon ones and also bought Decathlon bottles. It doesn't grab the bottle and bounce it around much, but that's okay because it doesn't stay afloat. The cage and bottle also fit as they are from the same shop. However, I only bought some thick rubber bands to secure on long rides, just to be safe. --- I have no plans to buy those bags that you attach to the front of the Brompton so I bought them. OK Bye. But I've read some issues on the net with bottle ejection when hitting bumps. The mitigation lies in doing the planned installation rather than arranging the bottles almost vertically. Because it's at the back of the seat, it doesn't interfere with folding. Although it sticks out (especially the bottle is tilted)

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
