Bottle Cages

Before you start to look into it you think that there's not much variety in bottle cages. How wrong you are. There's a hug array of wildly differernt designs out there, each making a claim to do a specific task well or offer some sort of advantage. The truth for most riders is that they all work and it's best just to go with whichever one you like the look of best. There are some riders who should go for a very specific type of bottle cage - triathletes and riders who have bikes with not much room inside their frames. Triatheltes can get bottle holders that position bottles behind the saddle out of the way of air drag. Side-loading bottle holder are good for bikes with compact frames that make it otherwise diffcult to get a full size bottle in and out of there.
