Review on 🦍 Enhanced Black Carbon Cage - XLAB Gorilla XT by Jimmy Bores

Revainrating 2 out of 5

The carbon wears out and the separators slip out from under the studs

Don't think you'll never lose a water bottle (even the right one) again. Mine squirms on every ride when it's bumpy. Also, after a few years, the bolts that hold them wear through the carbon, so the cage can actually slip over the bolt head and turn upside down, starting your bottle. The photo shows how much wider it is at the chafing point. After that you have to set the puck. Screw heads should be larger. I'm giving it two stars because it looks cool and light.

Pros
  • Outstanding overall performance
Cons
  • Upgrades available
