Looking for solution: Bottle cage mount

Recommended Posts

Hi Hubbers

 

Looking for a bottle cage mount with a quick release. This is for a seatpost. Most mounts that I have seen needs a tool to disassemble which take time. The attachment to the seatpost should be quick and easy.

Some have a single ring, others a double ring for the top and bottoms screws. It has to be a single ring. An idea was to use a short QR quick release of a normal seatpost clamp and combine it with a single ring bottle cage mount. But I am struggling to find a QR and a single ring bottle cage that will work together.

 

Does somebody have a hack that they have deviced or is there something in the marketplace.

 

Thanks

I haven't seen one either so curious to know if this hack exists. Is it because you want to quickly remove and install in another bike or is there another reason for QR unit?

My bike's 2nd bottle cage is below the frame. Lot of mud. Most of my rides 1 bottel is enough. I prefer a clean seatpost without a saddle bag and permanent bottle cage. So, if I do need a 2nd bottle I want a quick option to put on and take off.

Check out GCN youtube they had something magnetic that you twist off.

Can work. Just a bit pricey $40

Of your frame is a hardtail then you can always use something like the Topeak versamount.

Or you can add the Fidlock twist system if you want the low profile look. Not cheap, but I don't think you are going to get a quick release system for little money.

Or the Fabric Cageless bottle system.

Solution was under my nose the whole time.

Used my mount for the bike light. Still needs some work but will suffice for now.

My guess is if it's plastic, you will lose your bottle

Jip.

 

At least spread the load with two of those quick.release brackets ...
