Hello

Does anyone know of a clever way to mount a bottle on my Commencal Meta AM?

I hate riding with a pack, so a cage would be ideal for shorter blasts. Thanks!

Stick a bottle in a jersey pocket.

If you crash it might fall out, just pick it up.

I got two screw on zip tie type mounts from halfords.
Works ok.
I do wish manufacturers would put mounts on if there's space. Even if you don't use a bottle they are good for batteries.

I have one of these for all day xc rides, the bolts came loose on really bumpy descents though, a bit of loctite would sort that.

Rewski, assuming that goes on the seat. Can you get to the bottles on the hoof or do you need to stop?

zippykona - sorry no much of a description, it fits at the back of the saddle and yes once you've got used to the position you can reach around and grab a bottle.

Might try one of these for my NDW - DL - SDW all dayer, can chuck in some tools etc too.
