Carbon water bottle cages

[Trekhawk]

I have Arundel Sideloader carbon cages on my compact frame and I really like them. No problems with durability so far.

I have these carbon water bottle cages -- inexpensive no name, light weight, look great, and have had no durability issues. I would recommend them. You can find them at:

Really, they are. They hold better than any cages I've tried (Profile, Elite & no name), yet bottles are easy to get in and out. The Sideloader cage is the best thing since sliced bread for small, compact geo frames.

You guys make the Arundels sound pretty appealing. My new bike is apparently ready for me to pick up (though there's still a ton of snow here so it will be a while before I actually ride it) so I'm thinking about this again.

With the sideloader, do you have to pull the bottle out of the side that's open (in other words would I have to train myself to use both hands to reach for a bottle) - or can you pull the bottle out of the cage from either direction?

Yep as Cali said you have to pull them out from the open side. Trust me you can do it - if I can do it anyone can.
