XLAB Sidekick Cage Right – Side Entry Carbon Water Bottle Holder for Triathlon and Road Bikes 8 Pounds of Grip Force – Matte Black

Ideal for compact frames, the Sidekick Cage offers side-access water bottle entry, perfect for suspension and road/gravel bikes when paired with a top tube bag.

• High Grip – The Sidekick Cage has 8 lb of grip while still allowing smooth and effortless bottle removal. Perfect for smaller frames. A reinforced top cage hook shaped to match the contours of your bottle, securely locking into the bottle’s neck. The arm surfaces are flat and smooth, providing unmatched cage to bottle friction. More friction means fewer bottle ejections.
• Easy Side Access – The longer of the Sidekick’s two arms wraps more fully around the front of your bottle, preventing forward ejections. The shorter of the two arms grips the bottle lower and allows easy bottle removal from the side. Increased access through a wider center opening, which permits the sides to flex for easy bottle withdrawal at a variety of angles. An aggressive single - sided funnel, allowing for near horizontal bottle insertion and removal
• Purpose - Optimized for use on smaller, tight geometry frames. Fits most standard diameter water bottles. For maximum grip use a bottle that has a consistent groove all the way around its neck. It should be uniform and fit tightly against the cage’s top retaining hook.
• Installation - Quickly and easily mounts with included bolts. Oval mounting holes allow for fine tuning cage placement. Perfect to hold on to your front hydration bottle.
• Materials – Thin and lightweight (32 grams) cage is constructed out of a proprietary carbon fiber composite layup. Included steel mounting hardware is highly corrosion resistant. Carries a limited lifetime warranty.
