Water bottle

[donaldmacdonald]

Hybrid 24 - use it on economy most of the time so still putting in a bit of effort - would be nice to have a water bottle but no bolts for a cage - any clever solutions?

put some insulating tape around the frame (to stop rubbing) and zip tie the cage to the frame ?

or put insulating tape around the cage itself - where it will meet the frame - and zip tie it ?

Give this a try and see if you can make it work for you... The cost is.$0 if you have a tenis ball kicking around.

You can buy a bolt on clamp mount for a bottle cage. Cheap and easy

Bicycle tubing is very thin walled and can deform or crack from the installation pressure of a Rivnet.
