I bought these to replace my aluminum bottle cages, one of which rattled on rough roads and both of which did not provide the best input or release of my water bottles - Camelback 24oz Podium Chill.
Positive: They look nice, don't rattle, large water bottles fit nicely, stay secure, and release easily.
Negative: The inside started looking a bit scuffed (whitish looking) after a few weeks, especially after riding in the rain. You don't notice it with the bottle in (of course), but it is a minor, cosmetic annoyance.
Great light weight and good looking cage. These come with a lifetime warranty that Blackburn actually stands behind. I managed to break one recently and got a free replacement with a quick phone call to an actual courteous English speaking person who was familiar with the product. No hassles or mindless questions.
Used to hold water bottles on road bike. Very easy to get bottle in and out. I broke 2 other brands because it was so difficult to get bottle in and out. These are amazing and will continue to use Blackburn holders.
Very nice light weight water cage. It fits all of my water bottles (camelbak, polar & cheap swag) very snug, no rattle or ejection when riding over bumps at high speed. I have it on my P2 TT bike. The red is a very deep classy color & looks sharp & shiny against the black frame. I would recommend this item.
Nothing to dislike , holds securely , great colors . I purchased a black one for the down tube it's color and a white one for the seat tube . Matching tube colors on my Lapierre Helius SFI
This cage ticks all the boxes for quality, appearance, design, and functionality. It is very secure and I sometimes find it actually a little hard to pull the bigger water bottles out of it. Smaller bottles work very well though. I installed two and use two small water bottles for longer rides. I have the gloss black which matches my frame very well. The holes are perfectly spaced. Huh you ask? I have had cages that did not precisely match up with my frame's cage mounting bolts! Overall, great cage.
Great bottle cage. Holds bottles very tightly yet easy to pull then out. I am using stainless steel bottles and they do not rattle in these cages. Easy to install and match my bike perfectly.
