Looks really nice. After a couple rides the bottom tab had bent down and my bottle slid out the bottom, and as a bonus the side wings have stretched out so even when the bent the bottom back up my bottom rattled around. Went to return it and 31 days had passed by so now I am the permanent owner of the crappiest water bottle holder ever designed. If you have $27 to spend, by anything else on the planet but this piece of #*^$. They really need to set it up so we can give zero or negative stars.

I ordered this bottle cage about half a year ago, and I just finished building my dream bike. I chose this because it matched the color scheme perfectly. But I was let down. After about a month of use, it was wildly bent out of proportion, then snapped. For this price, I would hope to get a product that actually works. When it was in one piece, it barely even held the water bottle well. I lost 2 water bottles because they fell out of it on the trail. If i had not delayed in building my bike, then I would have been able to return it, but it is past the return window, and I am highly disappointed.

Cool

Bottle cage looks awesome but the performance really lacks. The moment you get into anything rowdy your bottle will go flying off the bike. Bends easily by hand but just doesnt hold the bottle well enough.

Looks cool. Got it for my girl's bike to accessorize. It bends super easy. Luckily, it bends back into place. It seems to hold the bottle okay, but just be aware what you're getting.

I really liked the look of these and since I had Supacaz bar tape, it was cool to have it all matchy-matchy. It was easy to slide bottles in and out and I never had any trouble losing bottles... Until about 18 months later when I went to put a bottle in the cage and it slid almost all the way through the cage and I thought it was going to drop out. I stopped to take a look at the tabs at the bottom of the cage were bent down so that they didn't hold anything in. They were easy enough to bend back but now they just slowly bend down during a ride where I have to constantly check them and push them back after I hit any bumps, rough pavement, etc. Pretty bummed but will be replacing them with something else.

The cage looks good, but it is very poorly made. The bottom tab is very bendable, I’ve lost a bottle both on bumps and by just trying to put the bottle back. Pretty disappointed given the price point, could get 2 steel cages for the price of one of these.

This cage looks great but is not sturdy. It launched my bottle out during a race and nearly crashed me and half the peloton out. If you are using it for commuting it may be ok, but after that incident I can't recommend it

Color

My review is pretty limited. Just want to comment that the red is more of a pink red; the picture does not reflect the in person appearance. Be aware!

Light but flimsy

These are as light if not lighter than most carbon cages and come in a bunch of nice colors, but they are extremely flimsy and bend way too easily. Once bent it can be very tough to get them reshaped in a way that will hold your bottle tightly without digging into it and creating marks or depressions.
