Review on 🚴 Top-quality Blackburn Cinch Carbon Fiber Bike Bottle Cage - Lightweight and Durable Solution for Secure Hydration by Scott Rodriguez

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Love it: very light, strong support and stylish

I bought this bottle cage because it was recommended as one of the lightest bottle types available. Since I was looking for a very light carbon bottle cage and a white one (because my bike is white) for my road bike, I decided to give it a try. I have been using this bottle cage for more than a year, I am satisfied and have decided to buy a second one. It's slim and stylish, especially white, and at 16g it's the lightest bottle cage I've found. I see some reviewers complain that it breaks easily, which may be true because it's so thin, but that hasn't happened to me. You might have to be a little careful not to put on/take off the bottles abruptly, but I never felt it was brittle; Carbon has seemed solid to me for over a year. Most importantly, despite looking flimsy and possibly fragile, it holds my bottles very firmly. I use Camelback Podium flasks and Polar flasks but they are held very tightly by this cage and are still easy to take out due to its open design. I am very happy with this cage.

Pros
  • ENERGY TESTED IN LAB -
Cons
  • Out of fashion
