Don't worry, duct tape is here to help.

Purchase a roll of tape to secure the lid. I have this bottle and a larger bottle from XLAB. Both are badly designed. The threads on the body and lid are small and do not match the design. Any good hit will cause the lids to pop out instantly. I wasted my money. The opening is narrower than the body, making it difficult to pack and remove items when needed. I've ridden a bike for 45 years but this is absolutely one of the worst purchases I've ever made.

Pros
  • Delivery was very fast
Cons
  • The list is getting long.

I was actually shocked

how much I can fit in this little capsule. I kept my hose and inflator in a 24 ounce water bottle. I had to keep my multi tool in my pocket as it didn't fit. Now I can use it to store my inner tube, multi-tool, 2 CO2 cartridges, blower, tire mounts, repair kit, zip ties, first aid kit, emergency money and a pair of latex gloves without putting too much pressure on the screw . up. I could probably ditch the multi-tool and add another tube and loosen the hex wrenches if I wanted to. No more…

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Great little tool cart

I decided to mount the Xlab Mezzo Cage Pod directly to the existing Topeak QR water bottle cage mount so it securely attaches to one of the four locations on our tandem bike. the frame does not dangle and can also be quickly removed using a QR clip. I drilled two holes in the side of the cage frame to attach directly to the QR clip. The Mezzo pod easily accommodates a spare 26x1.4 tube, Lezyne pocket air pump, patch kit, crowbars and hand wipers, with a little more room. I didn't use the tool…

Pros
  • Best in the niche
Cons
  • Great price

I bought all 4 bottle storage containers, this one, XLAB Mini Cage Pod, Positz Bike Tool Storage Bottle Large 750ml and Elite Byasi water bottle stand. Quick Analysis: Xlab Mezzo Botella de agua - Xlab Mezzo Botella de agua Almacenamiento Pod, Negro, I was able to install 4 CO2 cartridges, multi-tool, 2 large levers, CO2 blower, patch kit, 10 zippers on the back. Derol replacement bracket. The only thing that didn't fit me was the 29" MTB tire XLAB Mini Cage Pod - perfect for road bike Positz…

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • some cons

SpaceX ready: Spacious and ready to go

This pod has space for two hoses, a multi-tool, levers and a CO2 cartridge. I bought this because I was tired of my saddlebag dangling from the XLAB Turbo Wing (black). Great, has everything I need and more. I could have stashed some biscuits instead of an extra whistle! Fast forward to ride #1. It was launched from the turbo wing not once, but twice, although my water bottle was still safe and sound. I even used the included rubber band to secure it, but apparently that didn't help. Maybe it's

Pros
  • An absolute legend
Cons
  • You could choose a newer model

Best cheap saddlebag alternative

Who likes saddlebags? Not this guy. The Velcro on the strap wears out. The bag rubs my thighs. And they look cheesy as hell. Just don't waste your money. The bottle holder can hold everything and more. I can fit a spare hose, two CO2 cartridges, a CO2 regulator, a couple of allen wrenches/tools, a small snack, a microfiber bag, and then some extra space. I rarely ride more than 25-35 miles at a time. I use about 3/4 of a water bottle during this time, so I can do without the extra holder. As I…

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • I don't really like anything, it's ok
