Review on ๐Ÿšฒ Enhancing Your Cycling Experience: Blackburn Mountain Aluminum Bottle Cage by Grant Galloway

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Holds water bottles, great Blackburn lifetime support

I bought this mainly because it was Blackburn. Why? A friend had a bicycle pump that stopped working because the head was bad. It was a Blackburn pump over 20 years old. I called them to order the parts needed to get it working again and they sent me a new head for a pump upgrade free of charge. Since then I've bought their gear whenever I could: they stand behind their products like no other company I know. I also wanted a better color for the water bottle cage as the Planet Bike cage seemed too silver for the bike I was renovating. The picture here is not correct: item and color are different. See my photos. The first photo shows two holders on a bicycle. The second photo shows a silver Planet Bike holder for comparison. Do you think it looks better than the Planet Bike holder? The Planet bike racks are good too, just the color doesn't match this bike. And yes, it's a bit crazy to swap out water bottle cages due to slight color differences, but why not? The holder works perfectly. It's a little more secure than some holders.

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
  • Upgradeable
