Just what I needed

This cage is a great addition to my bike. At first I tried the Serfas Cirque SL cage, but not only did it look a bit tacky, it wouldn't accomodate slightly wider bottles like the Camelbak Podium. This cage does a better job with that, as its arms can flex, although it's still a pretty tight fit. Also, the weight actually comes in right where it's advertised - two cages weigh 50g total without bolts, or 60g with bolts. At 25g a cage, these are pretty darn light.

Also, I like the design of these - just classic enough to look great on my Cervelo, which has a similar finish to the carbon (no weave). These cages also share a resemblance to the highly-regarded (and very expensive) Arundel Mandible, which makes me think this is a fundamentally stronger design (using tubular carbon that flexes), as opposed to the thin carbon sheets used in most carbon cages.
