Review on ๐Ÿšฒ XLAB 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage: Ultralight & Super Strong Bike Bottle Holder by Marc Stewart

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Like a stone! best in water bottle cage

I bought these cages with the XLab carbon fiber fender. They were easy to install and very durable. I have no problem getting the bottles in and out of the cages and they hold my large 24oz bottles perfectly without falling out. They are very lightweight yet durable. I was hesitant to spend money on carbon fiber but now I'm glad I did. The red color is great as I have red accents on my bike (SRAM Red) and they go well together. My only downside regarding cages is that after inserting and removing the bottle the interior tends to scratch the resin or wear away the finish. This makes the inside look a little whiter than usual, but since I don't notice it with the bottle on the shelf, I'm not taking out the star. Maybe it's the plastic in my water bottles that's wearing out. It doesn't bother me anyway, but I wanted to mention it for a full review. Keep yourself hydrated!
