Sunlite Handlebar Mount Bottle Cage - Black Review

Sunlite Handlebar Mount Bottle Cage - Black
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is excellent! I paid less than $8 including shipping; what a deal! It's very solid once mounted tightly and the front of the cage is of course a little bendable so you can get a nice tight fit on a range of different sized bottles. The only thing I suggest is making sure you have room on your handlebars; I just barely got it squeezed in between all the cables on my mountain bike. You need to make sure you have about an inch of straight, handle bar thickness tube to clamp it to, and enough clearance with the cables. I suggest just taking a water bottle and eye-balling to see if you have the space. If your handlebar is just a straight, horizontal bar then you're probably fine. But if you have a different handlebar (like I do) then you should check before buying. Probably 90% of bikes out there will be OK!
Highly recommend!

M-Wave Plastic Bicycle Bottle Cage Review

M-Wave Plastic Bicycle Bottle Cage
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This waterbottle mount can be used horizontally (as shown in the product picture) on your handlebars, for instance, or used vertically on your seatpost or your frame, etc. It has a small metric hex/allen screw that can be used to change the orientation of the mount. Other than switching orientation, there are no tools needed to mount this waterbottle cage!
The mount comes with ZERO instructions, which isn't cool, but using it is very straightforward and pretty much common sense.
It comes with a tiny black rubber shim that you place between the clamp (touching the bike) and the frame/post of the bike. This keeps the mount from slipping and sliding around.
The mount is bit heavier than it needs to be but it's due to the clamp and quick-release. The actual cage portion of this product is quite light.
The actual waterbottle cage can be unscrewed from the clamp and used, standalone on bikes that already have braze-ons for waterbottle cages.
On the negative side, if you have a skinny waterbottle it can easily fall from the cage. Also, you have to be careful of the angle at which it sits because the waterbottle sitting in the cage can be knocked loose due to hard road vibration or a really hard bump so mounting it underneath your bike, hanging down, isn't advised.
This is a great solution for anyone that doesn't have braze-ons for waterbottles on their bike frame or someone who simply wants to carry extra waterbottles and have them placed anywhere on their bike.

The cage mounts easily, has a smooth satin finish, and is very light. It holds my 24-oz insulated bottle very well during those neighborhood bike rides with the family.

I bought this yesterday - no where does it tell you how to install it - I emailed Schwinn but have not heard back - How about a little instruction for people who do not know how to put on your product - even POP TARTS have instructions!!!!!

Topeak Mini 20 Pro Mini Tool with Neoprene Bag Review

Topeak Mini 20 Pro Mini Tool with Neoprene Bag
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I researched a lot of mini-tools before buying the Topeak Mini 20. This product is very compact and sturdy. The entire product is metal, not just the tools, but also the frame and the tire lever. I read reviews of other mini-tools that reported that the plastic tire lever cracked. On some other tools, the frame that holds the tools was plastic and subject to damage.
This tool is much smaller and lighter than tools like the Topeak Alien series that include box wrenches. If you don't need the 8/9/10mm wrenches, the Mini 20 is the best choice.
Topeak says "The metal tire lever is designed for durability and for emergency use only." I recommend carrying a separate set of two full-size tire levers, since two may be needed to remove a tight tire, or carry a Crank Brothers Speed Lever.
One tool that is not included in the Mini 20 is a knife.

Klean Kanteen Water Bottle Bike Cage for 27-Ounce Bottles Review

Klean Kanteen Water Bottle Bike Cage for 27-Ounce Bottles
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It felt cheap and too flexible when I installed it, but I went ahead anyway. From the get-go it rattled and shook with a full 27 oz-er while going over anything but pristine pavement. The other day it seemed to be looser than usual and I had to stop and tighten it. Soon after, I hit a moderate bump and the kanteen was flung from the cage, cascading into traffic and acquiring a severe dent along its journey. Upon further inspection the cage had significant cracking and splitting of the plastic around the mounting holes. What a piece of junk. It's clear nobody bothered to test it.
