Bottle holder

[Bealz998]

I'm after a bottle holder there's hundreds on eBay but are any of them any good ? Can someone recommend any

These are good - sturdy but light, and hold a bottle secure.

Or these, if you fancy some carbon bling.....

No real need for Carbon cages, £30+ for what does the same job as a £1.99 one with a saving of a massive... 50 grams... The blackburn £1.99 ones are find from Planet X

Got the Elite Stealth myself.

Elite Cicussi

The elite ones from halfords about £10 a pop really light good quality I have 3 of them now http://www.halfords.com/webapp/wcs/..._productId_760813_langId_-1_categoryId_273927

Tescos own brand. Dirt cheap, work, light and cost a fraction the cost of a carbon jobbie.

I have two of these

No issues after using them for two years.

Don't like the Elite ones that everyone and their dog seems to rave about, but I do like my Tacx Foxy

I use these and they do the job whilst looking good

+1 0n the Tesco own brand holders.........cheap n cheerful if you can find them. My Tescos doesn't seem to have them any more!

I have 'Specialized' one on my road bike at the moment. Nice minimalist swoopy design and very light......if a bit spendy. Lots of choices out there. I wouldn't sweat over a few grams here and there. Buy one (or two!) you like the look of. By the time you've stuck a litre or so of water in 'em weight becomes a non-issue IMO.

I have two elite race ones same as that halfords link above. Work fine and look ok.

Had to laugh a few weeks back In a cycling mags "super bike" pullout that showcased the best bikes money can buy.

One such bike, with a price tag of several thousand pounds had a bottle holder on it... Guess what it was..

Yep, an elite, exactly the same as on my bike that cost £7.99

I've got Giant cages (actually I'm not plural anymore as one broke when I fell off a while back). Tbh they're a rip-off as they're no bigger than normal cages.

My Aldi has them in at the moment for £2.99 including the bottle which has a choice of tops with it!

Tacx Tao. Had the same pairs for years

I came across this cool blog the other day: http://www.stuff.tv/5-best-bits-cycling-gear/feature and ended up getting a Scosche Boombottle - pretty cool! Not sure how much this helps
