Looking to save weight and get rid of that ugly water bottle cage? Check out Fabric’s cageless water bottle. I saw this for the first time at Sea Otter last week, and my mind was pretty much blown. I’ll let the photos do most of the explaining.
The clips on the bottle are actually really tight–you need to use a good amount of force to get the bottle on and off the mounts. This is a good thing, particularly for mountain biking since you don’t want your bottle bouncing out on the trail. The bottles themselves are fairly low capacity (600ml), but it sounds as if other shapes and sizes are in the works.
The bottles come with two sets of mounts so you can outfit two of your bikes. The bottles were available at Sea Otter for purchase for about $15, and the Fabric website has the MSRP listed at 9.99 GBP (a little over $14).
