Adjustable Side-Loading Japanese Craftsmanship The Tanaka Adjustable Bottle Cage Eight Moves Side Entry - Right is a handcrafted duralumin bottle cage from Japan that solves a common problem for riders with smaller frames, full-suspension bikes, or frame bags: difficult bottle access. Instead of requiring you to pull the bottle straight up and out (which can be impossible with limited clearance), this side-loading design allows you to remove and insert bottles by pulling them to the right. The "Right" designation means the opening faces right when installed on the downtube; when installed on the seat tube, the opening automatically flips to the left side. This thoughtful orientation makes it easy to configure bottle placement on both seat tube and downtube positions. What sets this cage apart is Tanaka's signature "Eight Moves" design—eight mounting slots that provide almost 70mm (approximately 2.75 inches) of vertical adjustment. This allows you to move the cage up or down to accommodate frame bags, avoid interference with another cage, or simply optimize positioning for your preferred reach. Made from premium duralumin—an aluminum alloy significantly stronger than standard aluminum—this cage combines lightweight construction (approximately 44-48 grams) with long-lasting durability. Handcrafted in Japan with attention to detail and available in seven colors, the Eight Moves Side Entry cage represents the kind of problem-solving design and quality materials that have made Tanaka a favorite among discerning cyclists worldwide.
