Fidlock Twist Bottle and Bike Base 600ml (TBL)

Product Information

The Restrap Mag Bottle is the neatest alternative to using a cage you can buy. It’s not dissimilar to the Vincero Design magnetic system, but is cheaper, more widely available, and crucially comes in a slightly larger 600ml size. Where the bottle cage sits on the bike is also important. Most modern bottle cages have machined eyelets to attach them to the frame via mounting bolts included with the bike, though the degree of height adjustability is different for each. Ron Vogl Thanks you very much, you guys are a first class act. People are usually fascinated and I will definitely continue to sing your praises. You have a customer for life. Thanks again and best wishes. The Restrap Mag Bottle comprises a separate mount and bottle. Bolted to the bicycle frame in place of the traditional cage is a base plate containing two studs housing powerful magnets.

Their innovative Twist bottle is one of their most popular designs for good reason. Some of its best features are: It’ll suit riders with small bikes, along with those using frame bags. However the largest market is likely to be riders who like the way it leaves their bike looking less cluttered, or are attracted by the novelty. and 450ml bottles feature an updated ergonomic design, easy-squeeze thanks to a softer material and a new high flow bottle cap with a self-sealing and leak-proof valve and optional dirt cover. Side loading: This kind of bottle cage allows for easier access to your bottle, especially when you don’t have a lot of frame space.By the same token, you can buy a set of decent left/right-specific cages (Lezyne's, for example) and two bottles for about the same money. Bottle cages come in top load and side load versions, and what’s best for you will depend on your frame. If there is tons of room in your front triangle, a top load cage will work just fine. However, as most full-suspension frames possess tight clearances, a side load cage will make your bottles more accessible. However, you’ll only be able to access from one side. How we test the best MTB bottle cages Pretty from the off, as the bottle isn’t being repeatedly inserted into a gritty cage, it’ll stay looking new almost indefinitely. Simply hold the bottle near the magnetic holder, and it will snap firmly into place. To remove, twist it away from the holder and it will come free. As the bottle can only be disengaged in a twisting motion it's impossible for the bottle to get ejected on even the roughest descents.

H.M., TWIST bottle system I just got this Hermetic bag, and went camping last weekend where we crossed streams and it was great to have my iPhone safe and dry. This is a must have for beach, mtn biking, boating, camping etc.High-quality material: the Twist 600ml drinking bottle is free of BPA and can be easily washed in the dishwasher.

Ideally, you want something lightweight, sturdy and that holds your bottle securely. Other considerations include how it works with the suspension system on your full-suss bike since some bikes have limited internal space.

7. Best Lightweight: Specialized S-Works Carbon Rib Cage III

We all use our bikes in different ways and this will reflect on the key factors you should consider when choosing a bottle cage. The bottle twist was espacially engineered to do away with conventional bottle cages, to take up a little space on the bike frame as possible. Thanks to its minimalistic design, the Bottle Twist can fit even the tighest bike frame and can be positioned on any part of the frame, from the crossbar to the saddle bar; which ever point is most conventient for the user.

This was taken before the bottle was lost. Quite a bit of grime accumulated beforehand. Photo by Matt Miller. Twin slot and hole mounts allow for extra adjustability when it comes to making multiple bottle cages work together. There’s a choice of two different cosmetic 3K carbon finishes and multiple colour swatch options on the glossy UD carbon versions. However the Mag Bottle is easy enough to use and robustly enough constructed to provide very few reasons to dislike it. Hover the bottle directly above the the mount and magnetism does the work of aligning and syncing the two. Pulled together, there’s no need to be too precise in your placement.

The mount is attached to the bike frame with the screws provided. The bottle just needs to be brought close to the mount and the magnetic attraction pulls the bottle in. The mechanical mechansim then secures the bottle."
