Our main water bottle tester and the author of this review, Sam, has ridden a bicycle across the United States, bikepacked all over the American Southwest, and spent years commuting by bike.

We’ll explain the differences between types of bottle holders and what to look for when you’re making a purchasing decision. Two sturdy Velcro straps keep the supplied bottle cage securely fixed to whichever part of the frame you need it. Other considerations include how it works with the suspension system on your full-suss bike since some bikes have limited internal space.It features a dial that tightens or loosens the arms of a plastic cage to fit the diameter of whatever bottle you need to carry.

A side-loading water bottle cage lets you remove and replace a bike water bottle on the side of the cage. If you’re using a 1-liter or larger bottle, we recommend using a strap to secure the bottle further, or it could bounce out of the cage when going over rough roads or trails.
