Review on Carbon Fiber Water Bottle Cage for T2D Adventures by Kevin Johnson

Revainrating 2 out of 5

It seemed perfect but then it broke

Bought for my wife's bike. Was looking for something other than aluminum as she often uses those metal bottles. The bottom tab broke after 2 weeks of commuting (e.g. 5 minutes commuting). I watched as she slipped the bottle into the holder and the little tab just exploded out of the bike bell like it was pre-tensioned or something. Looking at the kink it looks like it could be an issue with the manufacturing process as it appears to be sheared in 2 axes, almost as if the material is internally split before snapping off. Seems like others have had similar issues with this little tab. Give another brand a try.

Pros
  • cool product
Cons
  • Modernity
