Profile Design Kage

Okay, they're not as sexy as carbon fiber cages, don't qualify you for bragging rights, but these cages are perfection. They're tough, hold securely, last forever, lightweight, have various mounting holes to tweak your application, stylish(?), and extremely cost effective. I've been using these for years on several different bikes. The white ones do show age a little more than the black ones, they'll show scuffs and stains that you wouldn't see on a black cage. I would love to be "that guy" with an $80 carbon fiber cage, but why? The weight difference is negligible, so save $75 for something else and get these.

Water bottle cages have been around since....forever? I had a steel wire cage with a plastic bottle on a Crescent bike I owned in the 1970's and even then it was already an old design...last year I had purchased a used Pugsley, and the previous owner had already fitted one of these. I decided that a second "Kage" would be good for longer rides. I like the modern design and the lightweight but really sturdy construction. Whatever plastic/resin composite material this is, it feels indestructable, like a G-Shock watch, or perhaps one of those plastic milk crates. It grips water bottles well, bouncing along on rocky trails doesn't result in spontaneous ejection. Bottles larger than standard capacity work fine, as long as they are near the "standard" bike water bottle diameter of about 2 7/8 inches (73mm), with an indentation at 5 inches for the upper tab to engage. The bottles in the photo range from 16 oz to 26 oz. Some are 25 years old, others almost brand new. All fit securely with no issues. The black cylinder with the Profile Design logo isn't a water bottle, it's a tool storage container. It is made to work with these Kages, if you don't want to use a tool bag under your seat. It's not impossible to force larger diameter bottles into the Kage's embrace, but it's a very snug fit, which forces the two sides further apart, and could conceivably crack the material, especially in cold weather.

An old school classic cage that functions well. And last longer than a standard alloy cage.

The most durable cage you can buy. Reasonably priced. Light weight. Keeps the bottle secure. Doesn’t allow the bottle to rattle over rough road surfaces or off road terrain. Been using them for years and will definitely continue to do so.

Very good value for money, but be prepared for a bit of forcing fixture screws through the eyelets! Don't wast money on expensive cages, these look really nice and work as expected i.e. they hold a bottle and allow easy return while riding!

And not only the best budget bottle cage, but one of the best bottle cages. No need to spend $70 on a carbon cage that is more likely to launch your bottles just to save a handful of grams on weight. The time spent stopping to pick up your bottles will be many multiples of time saved by the lighter weight, which in reality is about 0 seconds.Save your money and your bottles. Use these.

I've been using these water bottle cages for many years and have found them to be the best.They hold on tight but allow you to pull the bottles out fairly easily.I've used them on road bikes and behind the saddle holders on my tri bike with great results.Have never lost a bottle when using these cages.

Very durable lightweight plastic. easy to put the bottle in and easy to pull it out. Very snug when the cup is in place.

Well Make

Uno de los mejores portaviones para la bici. Imposible que se caiga el bidón.

The cage is made from relatively thick, but flexible plastic. It will accommodate different size bottles. It grips even my smallest bottle firmly. It is easy to place a bottle in the cage and remove from them it. This is my second bottle cage from Profile, the first is still going strong after several years (on my other bike).

habe schon mehr als genug flaschenhalter montiert. jedoch dieser ist nicht nur stylisch sondern auch stabil und passt zu vielen bikes. kaufempfehlung

El material no es de lo mejor pero hasta el momento está funcional la liga o resorte que ejerce la presión a la botella no creo que dure demasiado
