    Water Bottle Cages

    To disable ads, please log-in.

    What kind of water bottle cage do you use? Aluminum, Carbon, Plastic, ????? Does anyone know where I can buy 'pink' cages?

    I have some aluminum ones on one bike, plastic on the other. I've never seen the need--at least on my bikes--for carbon or Ti. Bontrager makes a pink cage, but I'm sure there are others. Check out pinkbitesite.com for inspiration.

    I have plastic cages on my bike but someday I'll get some matching Arundel Dave-O carbon cages. The Dave-O cages come in many different colors, including pink.

    Specialized also does pink cages.

    A search at Amazon for "water bottle cages pink" returned this among others as well as pink water bottles.

    I bought this simple, nothing fancy pink alloy powdercoat bottle cage:

    What I like about it is in addition to my regular standard water bottles, I have a tall 27oz stainless steel water bottle, and it fits securely in this cage. It looks nice too.

    I actually bought it at Niagara Cycle. The shop is located in Niagara Falls.

    Ahh this site is AWESOME. Thanks for the link! It's definitely given me some inspiration to completely pink-out my new bike. The frame and fork came in today and it's a gorgeous bubble gum pink in the back half and black in the front. LOVE it.

    When I had my lovely pink mountain bike I had the Bontrager one below. Super secure, Bontrager also makes pink in metal. A store that sells Trek would probably order it if you asked. http://bontrager.com/model/04072

    I use basic aluminum (blue) on my road bike and the green plastic one on my mountain bike. http://www.specialized.com/us/en/bc/...jsp?spid=57114. I actually LOVE the sideloaders but not sure you anyone makes them in pink.
