I’ve broken several of the £ 3 bottle cages now and looking for something a little more substantial for off road use. Could be the fact I run a 1000ml bottle I guess?

I use Spesh ones. Not broken one yet.

Specialized, Bontrager, Arundel.
Use versions of all of these.the last bottle cage that broke was because it was worn through.

I use the ones that look like this:

Never broken one yet

King Cage.

Stainless on a budget.

Titanium if you are feeling flush.

End of thread………

Ti King is a work of art.

I do like that pdw bird cage though!

If you after side loader BTW then Spesh concept stores have left hand side loading ones for a fiver at the moment.

Don’t recall ever losing a bottle of having issues.

I use to use the elite ones with a camelbak bottle and although I never lost one it would move out of the cage a couple of centimetres or so every ride…
Bought a toepeak one with an adjustable cage and so far so good…

Salsa Nickless Cage – got to be one of the best “unknown” products out there…

Never lost a bottle and also they seem to last forever. I have quite a few of them.

Spesh Rib Cage. Although £11 for a bit of injection moulded plastic seems like quite a rip off.
Good though.

Mt Zoom Ti bling cage. Lovely.

Tacx Tao. Had them on my Audax and mtb. Good price and hold the bottles firmly. Never heard of one breaking.

Not broken a Blackburn aluminium one yet. In fact the first of three I have had is still in use on my MTB today. It’s about 12 years old.

I quite like the topeak adjustable ones, though it’s fairly rare that I use a non-standard bottle TBH
