    I want to get one of those bottle cages that takes a hip flask as a present for a mate, but can’t find one in stock anywhere. (Formerly Charlie the) Bikemonger has a couple, but both out of stock, similar story elsewhere. Anyone seen one?

    This one looks fun. They do make others…

    Cheers – they’re the ones Bikemonger stock in the UK… but not at the moment

    Bottle opener on there as well, cos why not.

    The ti one’s sold out, but you can add a SS one to your cart.

    Or here with a flask:

    Thread resurrection:

    I ordered a Kieft one linked above (thanks Nedrapier).

    It turns out Kieft Racing are the Sick! Bicycles of the F1 world (if that energy drink company haven’t already taken that position).

    Briefly: ordered said flask. Waited a week. Emailed to ask when I could expect it and was told one would be in the post tomorrow as a special exception (usually made to order). Another two weeks pass, an unanswered email and numerous phone calls. I assume I’ll never see it or my money again. Then it arrives, with a flask I didn’t order, and some stickers (ditto) but no further communication.

    I wanted to return it for a refund, but that seemed risky, so I just emailed to moan. That triggered an apology (I always find the ones you have to ask for are the most heartfelt 😉 ) and some excuses.

    Now I have a present for my mate whose birthday was two weeks ago, a £4 eBay hip flask with a logo I don’t want (worth £20 apparently) and some stickers with stuff about cars. So that went well.

    Not your fault at all! And the cage itself is very nice. Just the service that was disappointing.

    So you ordered something thats made to order, it took three weeks and you got a free hipflask and some stickers?

    Who doesn’t love hipflasks and stickers?
