    What have you collected and brought home in your water bottle? Planned or spontaneously.

    I love Alan's idea of collecting blackberries in a water bottle, as mentioned in the cleaning your bottle thread. It makes me wonder what else it could be used for (after you've drunk it's contents.)

    "Vintage" water bottle holder

    Must admit that this bit of the forum isn't my patch, but I do rather like this: https://www.cyclestore.co.uk/elite_eroica_double_mount_bottle_cage-ID_69434 Wondering if I could maybe use it on one of my hybrid/tourers.

    Where to put my water bottle cage on a KMX trike

    I bought a couple of cheapo water bottles and cages, both from sports direct yesterday, one was a Dunlop £1.49 bottle with cage, it was priced at £2.99 but i said i see it on web at half that so she price matched it and the other was a £2.99 Muddyfox water bottle and cage, both plastic tabs...

    Very loose bottle cage bosses - Fixable?

    My trusty 2012 Triban 3 is poorly - three of the four bottle cage bosses are very loose, one of which even has the boss split in half with the top half loose above the frame and the bottom half inside the frame with the bolt seized in to it...yuck. So the question is, is this fixable? I went to...

    Titanium bottle cage RSP old style

    I'm after a titanium bottle cage to match up with my old style RSP one, if anyone has one they no longer use? It seems the wiggle lifeline one was very similar too, but they're out of stock too. I've seen a couple of similar ones on the bay, but look like they might be a different finish, so I...

    Recommend a bottle cage - well two......

    I've got one but for longer rides I'd like two on. I can't get another of the one I have (well, they have to match) and with it being a 52cm frame and an oval downtube, two of the same would fit but the bottles would interfere which brings me to the main point of the recommendation. Because of...

    Does a water bottle improve aerodynamics?

    I have never used a water bottle while riding TT, keeping the frame 'clean'. But I've seen claims that the flat-ish water bottles on the downtube improve aerodynamics. Does anyone have real world experience with this?

    Metal one peice bottle cage required

    I have a couple of Oxford bottle holders that on closer inspection appear to be made from three parts. The frame that holds the cage to the bike, the top back bit of the cage, in essence a narrow U shape and the part that suports the bottle. The U shape and the bottle support just appear to be...

    where to strap on a third bottle cage

    I am doing an Ironman in 2 weeks. My third, plus a load of half IMs so quite experienced. But slow! I take my own sports drink and in the past have had two bottles in the main cages. They then provide new bottles of water. (You throw away your own bottles) .I have always stopped and added...

    When was the last time you had a bottle of wine with a cork stopper?

    When was the last time you had a bottle of wine with a cork stopper? Me? Unless it was a bottle of Home Made, I really can't remember :sad:

    Came a cropper on a plastic bottle

    Is this common or was I just unlucky? Travelling down New Cavendish Street at lunchtime on my Brompton just touched the brakes and the next thing I'm on the deck to a really weird noise. At first I thought it was some kind of mechanical then I realised the noise was a flattened plastic bottle...

    Kona Sutra bottle cage query

    Evening all Assuming I will need more than one bottle I noticed a potential issue with mounting a bottle cage on the upright tube due to the position of the clamp below. I bought a zefal bottle cage and noticed the bottom of the cage interferes with the clamp. Im guessing I will have to use...

    Water bottle carriers

    I wanted to have more ability to carry water on my trike and did experiment with using an aqua pack fitted to the rear of the seat frame. But it was fiddly to fit and not particularly easy to use. On a trip to Evans cycles I saw they sold a very reasonably priced handlebar mount for a water...
