Velo Orange Retro Water Bottle Cage with Tab: Polish Stainless

highly polished, beautiful, and light (estimated half the wt. of the Zefal vintage). perfect for a touring bike or sporty lugged steel steed.

Works well.

I purchased this bottle holder, along with the larger 32oz holder, for my mod-retro steel bike. Fits all my bottles just fine, with a bit iof wiggle room out of the box. You can squeeze/pull the two "halves" to adjust tension on the bottle as needed. The design is best suited for a very open frame geometry, as it prevents the bottle moving to the side until it's nearly clear of the holder. But as something most of us will be purchasing for looks and durability, it hits all the marks.

Looks great, lightweight and holds a bottle securely. It fits nicely into the Velo Orange handlebar bottle mount. But it shattered after about a month of road use. Avoid, either the engineering or the materials are flawed.

I was going to purchase the holder from Linus Bikes, but this is exact SAME ONE for a little less of a price. Holds a tumbler fairly well, although it took a slight adjustment to open up a bit for my Venti triple shot with ice from Starbucks :) Overall- amazing little gadget that is great for cruising around town!
