The GORILLA CAGE helps prevent bottles ejecting from cages on bumpy roads, and saddle-mounted water bottle carriers. The cage has over 2X the gripping force of conventional carbon cages due to the 6 high shouldered carbon gripping fingers, tall retention tab at the top and thicker carbon material. The GORILLA CAGE will fit on any standard cage mounts. Approx 10lbs grip on bottleStiff top lip helps retain bottlesFlared entry for fast insertionThick shelf to support large bottles For rough road surfaces or mountain biking, check out the GORILLA XT CAGE Material: Carbon FiberWeight: Approx 40g (1.42oz)Grip: Approx 10lbs WarningTo ensure the best possible fit with the GORILLA CAGE, use a bottle that has a groove all the way around that is uniform and fits tightly into the hook at the top of the GORILLA CAGE. Bottles with shorter groves that do not fit properly into the hook like the Camelback Podium, and bottles with grooves that are not uniform around the entire circumference like the Polar Insulated bottles are not recommended for use with the XLAB GORILLA CAGE. In our experience these two bottles do not stay in place on rear carriers due to the lack of a groove for the cages to grip. Insulated Bottle NoticeRecommended insulated bottle is the XLAB COOL SHOT. The cage's anti-ejection properties cannot be guaranteed with other brands of insulated bottles.
