The XLAB Gorilla Bottle Cage keeps a firm grip on bottles over rough roads to keep them from ejecting, especially when used on rear saddle mounts like those used on triathlon bikes. Its holding power comes from six high-shouldered arms, a tall retention tab, and stiff carbon construction. Delivering 2X the security of conventional cages, it's still easy to insert and remove bottles thanks to its flared entry.
Claimed weight is 39 g. Requires traditional bottle shapes with a deep, uniform groove near the top to clear the retention tab. Bottles such as the Camelbak Podium are not compatible.

Secure!
I transferred classic road bike cages to my new gravel bike. First ride I lost bottles multiple times as I hit washboards or other bouncy spots. These Gorilla cages are the real deal, extremely secure bottle and not crazy hard to get my drink in and out of. A little pricey, but definitely worth the extra cost as they really work well.

Solid cage
Holds bottles securely behind the saddle when paired with something like the super wing.

XLAB Gorilla Cage over priced
I read reviews that this was the cage to purchase to prevent your water bottles from launching. So far I have had to retrieve my water bottles multiple times. The bottles are mounted to the XLAB Super Wing as per there instructions. I am using new CamelBak water bottles because XLAB stated the bottles need to have a groove for the tab to catch. The bottles are very hard to remove so I don't know why they are launching. I am riding paved roads in southern Utah. I guess I could have purchased cages for half the price and placed a rubber band on them to keep them from launching.

The best..
Gorilla bottle cages are the best you can find, I have these on my TT bike and the bottles stay put.. period, plus I know this is subjective but I think they look the best and Im not really a fan of bottles on the seat tube but I think Gorillas even look great there also, the matte black comes with black lettering which I put on my S-Works Tarmac..

XLAB products always exceed expectations. I listen to other cyclist complain about their water bottles always jumping out of their cages and onto the road. With XLAB Gorilla cages, I never have to worry about that happening. It's easy to grab my bottle out of the cage and easy to get back in with the confidence of knowing I won't lose it on the next bump in the road.
