Great cage for touring/off road

Works of art. Good for gravel/dirt, bottles won't bounce out. Bonus for those in hot climates, it holds thermal hydro flasks/klean kanteens. Might scratch the bottles, but won't harm the functionality. If you really want cold water in AZ, UT, or NM in the summer, this gives you the option.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very solid - steel is always real

I use these on my bikepacking rig. Having the tubing go over the bottle rather than under is very helpful when keeping it in place while riding technical terrain. You really can't ask for more out of a cage that also looks pretty amazing at the same time. A very solid piece for any serious rider.

Thank you for your feedback.

Super Secure Bottle Cage

Great bottle cage. Using this on my gravel bike to hold the tool bottle underneath the downtube. I use an additional velcro strap to help hold the bottle in place but the bottle cage along is super secure and tight. Stainless steel seems strong and won't break like aluminum or carbon.

Thank you for your feedback.

Classy looking bottle cage yet functional

I've used this bottle cage for a couple of months now and find that this cage works better than most cages because it fits my KleanKanteen better and it doesn't rattle.

The look was also one of the reason I bought this cage.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very pretty! And a pretty darn good grip!

Super neat design, firm grip on the bottles, and they really don't mark up the bottle!

Thank you for your feedback.

Good-looking cage that works well with stainless and other metal bottles

Bought one for my road bike. With a 30-min commute, I go on rides longer than an hour infrequently, so I wanted to just be able to use my everyday stainless insulated bottle (same size as Klean Kanteen). This lets me do that without marking my bottle up like an aluminum cage probably would. When I'm not carrying water, it's light enough for my taste and looks pretty good doing nothing.

May not recommend for someone trainingracing who needs to hydrate much more frequently than I do - the design is such that you can't tilt the bottle until it's pretty far out of the cage already - but if you're a serious roadie you're likely not looking at this anyway.

Thank you for your feedback.

Stainless steel cages are the best.

You have to look closely to see the design is a little different. I can't tell whether it is better, but it works great. I was suspicious of my carbon cage from the start. It only lasted ten years. Back to stainless steel for me - more durable and a lot less expensive.

Thank you for your feedback.

Holds everything!

I bought this as the third bottle holder to fit under the down tube on my Wi.De. I already had two on the traditional spots, and had to whale on them a bit so I could actually get the water bottles out without a major effort. I had a less stout cage there to carry my water bottle storage unit, but it disappeared after a bumpy ride. Now it�s totally locked down.

Thank you for your feedback.

I think the carbon cages are ridiculously expensive and ugly.

These are gorgeous and work great.

Perfect

This cage just doesn't let go, I've never lost a bottle or even had one come mildly loose, even on the roughest descents. I use these on my road bike for the light weight and my mountain bike for the good grip. It's lighter than many aluminum cages and can be bent back into shape if it gets mangled in a crash.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great bottle cage

I like the upside down design and the fact that my metal water bottle is silent when seated in the cage.

classic awesome cages

Great finish, classic, relatively lightweight for the material. Definitely one of the prettier cages ever made. Might not fit every frame as well. In my guess these actually fit better though.

Elegant, functional awesomeness

The Iris cage is sleek and sexy, and gently flexes to hold a variety of water bottles. I use stainless Klean Kanteen bottles, that rattle in other cages and are held securely in these. Made in USA, steel is real. LOVE these.

Lightweight and reliable.

Lightweight and durable cage at a fraction of the cost of carbon or ti. Holds bottles securely and have yet to lose one on bumpy gravel descents.
