..for the most utterly, [i]utterly [/i]cretinous cycling "lifestyle" product is:

£35 FFS...for the privilege of picking shards of glass out of your knackers after a stoppie.

Metropolitan types, what's wrong with carrying your bottle of Merlot in a standard bottle cage like everyone else? Eh?

Merlot? I'm not keen on red whilst cycling, something fresh and white goes down better, maybe a nice Lambrini.

Shouldn't you match the wine against wheel size?

If it was mounted on the seat tube then you could employ the use of a long straw. 😀

Hey now there's an idea. A hydration system for cyclists which allows them to imbibe liquid through a long straw whilst riding... hang on.

Shouldn't you match the wine against wheel size?

24" = WKD Blue
26" = Jacobs Creek
650b = Red Bull
29er = Old Thumper
700c = Lambrini

Shouldn't the wine just be whatever colour best matches your bike?

Mine's orange, so Buckfast Tonic Wine would work... and be appropriate for a number of different reasons

It looks like it could double up as some kind of fetish-wear so maybe it could justify the outlay.

BigButSlimmerBloke wins for me. One of my favourite beers when I am stateside.
I have a Kona MinUte for my beverage carrying duties, and beer only. Imagine the embarrassment of arriving at a party with one bottle of wine or only 6 beers.

If I could make money out of selling pointless tat to rich idiots I would.

Good luck to them!
