Title: carbon bottle cage
Post by: Thunderchild on March 01, 2005, 03:48:38 pm

For all of you carbon nuts, I found these funky water bottle cages while looking at this dude's wheelbuilding website.   Go to http://oddsandendos.safeshopper.com/19/cat19.htm?510

Too expensive for me and I don't use a water bottle much.  Maybe on really long rides where I need more than the 100 ounce camelbak.

Simon,

the first one you listed from chain reaction cycles would be really good on an Oz as it is a side load cage.

my $.02
