Double Seat Mounted Bottle cage

[2wd]

Bought this to mount the bottles on the rear of the seat (ignore the holder on the left as a matching bontrager holder is on its way)

I'm not sure if I like it at the moment but tried them on a quick ride around the the garden and they're easily accessible

i have never had any issue getting a bottle from the frame, im not a fan of seat mouted bottles, personally I would rather have the weight as low as possible, when the bottles are full does it effect handling to any degree?

 

[2wd]

Not been out on a proper ride yet so don't know

 

[2wd]

Just been out for 10 miles with a full bottle and didn't have any issues with handling

 

[Mr Haematocrit]

cool, do you find the bottle easier to access than on the frame?

I was behind someone on the Dunwich dynamo who had one like this

At some point, the bottle bounced out of it, and he didn't notice. Of course, with 200 people behind him, he got it back.

Also, I can imagine needing four bottles in Australia or South Africa etc, where the weather is hot and the distances between taps can be long, but Manchester?

^^^^ I saw some similar which were about £35.00 which had bad reviews.. ie bottles falling out

The bontrager holder I have held my bottle well

I do drink loads when I'm out and even in less than an hour I'll drink one bottle of High5 Zero

It'll look better when the matching Bontrager holder is on....

Honest,it will (says to oneself in a convincing manner )

My hydro pack and the rucksack that holds it cost less than that!

I've thought about getting something like this, but I haven't seen one that would allow me to still use a wedge pack (and access it). I can only carry 1.25l on the frame because the seat tube cage will only take a 500ml bottle. Personally, I don't care what they look like. I'd rather be properly hydrated (and not overheated from carrying a hydration backpack).

Now with matching holders
