Product Description : CageMount is a fixer for attaching an additional water bottle cage to the handlebar or seat post. Provides convenient access to an extra water bottle during extended commutes or when cycling in warmer weather. It comes apart in 3 pieces and its fairly easy to put on your bicycle. If your bike has frame or handle bars of 1" or less you will have to insert something on the inside of the loop to get a tight fit. Choose your spot on your bike wisely as this sticks out approximately 2.5" and if you use the Topeak bottle holder recommended for this mount you will need about 6" of space. I put mine on my frame and found it was in my way when getting on and off my bike. I ended up putting it on the front part of my frame that the handle bars connect to. I purchased one of those, to go with the drink holder on my bike (2 parts). Works very well and is sturdy. I regret not having bought two of them: when I wanted a second one for longer trips, I bought one at a local retailer (the big stores from Arkansas..) and only in comparison to it (both about same price) the quality differences show: Topeak mount and separate drink holder are holding tight, while the other product tilts and spills my drink; the Topeak screws are also sturdy and can be tightened and opened many times, while the screws on the other product were irregular and stripped out the first time using it. In essence: this is a product I can highly recommend! I used this to put a water bottle cage on the front fork of my son's bike. Impressive little guy. Can really take a beating. Nice quality product. A little tricky to figure out how to install, but once you take it apart and realize how it works (sort of like how a hose clamp works, although the screw is safely inside) it only take a minute to install.
