Product Description: 4.5mm tubular SS Cage.44 grams.Natural sandblasted finish. Where to Buy
Reviews Nice but not exactly as described  by: on: 14-Apr 2010 The short version is that these are fine cages, hold well and being SS won't mark up your bottles. Decently made, especially for the price, a classic look and very functional. The pair of these cost about the same as a single Blackburn bottle cage. Unlike the other reviewer who was dismayed to find the satin finish, I prefer it to the polished look. I hacked off a star because they are advertised all over the place (including the manufacturer's site) as being 44 grams. They are not. I bought two and they weighed in at 54 and 55 grams respectively (the same weight as the coated alloy Blackburn cages I am replacing). Not a HUGE deal, but that's too much a difference to be explained away by manufacturing tolerances... 44 grams is simply a lie. Good cage, note that it has a matte grey surface, not shiny  by: on: 09-Feb 2010 I have these on all my bikes now - they are light, tough, and don't mark up the bottles. Note that they have a matte grey finish to the metal, not a silver polished finish. I'm fussy about my Rivendell so I polished the two of these cages I have installed on the Riv and they are shiny silver now.. Most people would not be that insane though ;) A-OK  by: on: 21-Nov 2009 This is a decent bottle holder that is decently made for the price; I had purchased it as a second bottle holder on my road bike. My main gripe about it is that it does not hold water bottles as firmly as my other aluminum bottle cage. I have yet to dislodge a bottle while going over a bump, but bottles have come loose before. Overall, I think there are bottle holders out there that are more fitted than this one that would be better suited for someone with a road bike. Works like it should by: on: 14-Oct 2009 Very lightweight and straightforward cage. However, this cage may be more suitable for road riding than mountain riding. Mountain cages tend to be stiffer to avoid dropped bottles. View All ReviewsView All Watter Bottle Cages |
