FIDLOCK Twist Bottle 450ml/15oz + Base Systems | New Leak-Proof, Self-Sealing Bottle Cap | Bike Water Bottle Holder with No Screws & Attached Bottle | Cage Free Magnetic Rack | Smoke

Love this thing. I use it on my mountain bike. Very secure attachment but easy to remove and replace while riding. Have crashed a few times and it stays put. Hopefully I’ll never crash hard enough to knock it off.I wish I’d gotten the next size up, this works well as a reserve “tank” on the longer rides.

Perfect set up on my Mt bike easy on off.

A must to fit 2 bottles in small frames. Or, to prevent leg rubbing against the bottle cage. My 11 year old son's 47cm frame couldn't fit 2 bottles without rubbing his leg. This had a few extra mm clearance and it worked great. Pricy, but a 2nd bottle in frame is priceless.

Just PERFECT

I think this would work well for a normal upright mounting position, but my MTB does not have a water bottle position inside the frame triangle, just one underneath the down tube. Because of this, the bottle gets pulled away from the mount on each bump and really flops around, and at one point came off.I do think this would be OK for a "normal" mounting on the top side of the down tube (or on a bike that is not used for trail riding). It does not hold as securely as a normal bottle cage, but probably well enough for that application. The only compelling reason I can think of to go with this over a normal cage would be if you don't want to have a cage on the bike when you are not using a water bottle. This is the reason I decided to try it.The water bottle itself and the top/spout are very nice to use and seem well made. I do think they should go with a stiffer plastic, though as it would let if flop around less.In any event, while this did not work for under the downtube, I like the design enough that I am going to order a smaller one to use on a different bike inside the frame triangle.

Did not received the color I had selected originally, but I love the product so far.

Got this for a small triangle frame on the YT Jeffsy XL (model from 2020). There are two parts to control the orientation, the bottle attachment (which stays connected to the bottle at all times) and the frame attachment (screws onto the frame). Each can be swapped directions and mounted up or down.The bottle cage works but I first had to follow the in box directions to flip the orientation of the attachment that is on the bottle; then I mounted the part to the frame attachment upside down. In every other configuration, including ones that had the bottle mounted upside down, I could force things into place but it was clear it wasn't going to work long term.With both things "wrong" from how the default would be it worked right and looks like the perfect fit. I can grab the bottle easily while pedaling and put it back no problem. Magnetics and the twist feature have kept the bottle in place over plenty of chunky rocks, smaller jumps, and miles of riding. It'd be nice to have a larger reservoir, but that wouldn't fit in the space without a custom bottle.

I was dubious of this design but now that I've had it a few month, I love it. I was under the impression it was only magnets holding it in, but it also has a clever mechanism so it's much stronger than just the magnets. I feel it's more secure than a cage even. I've wrecked many times and purposefully tried to disengage it and I've not been able to do it once. I can't even get it to pop out with my knee when I try.At first I had a hard time finding the right alignment to snap back in while riding, but my body quickly learned. So just like it's no longer difficult to snap into my clip-less bindings, so too this just becomes natural after a few hours of riding. I actually find it easier than a cage now to re-attach. One just needs to just hover around the area, and the magnets will pick it up.The valve cover is pointed the wrong way for me. When I pull the bottle off with my right hand, I want to flip it up with my thumb as flipping it with my index finger is awkward and it flips back towards my face. But I don't ride in much mud and found that it was simple to remove without damage.I think it woudl be good for tight frames. My frame is an XL and the design is such I have much space on the down tube. But some bikes are more cramped and I could see one could put on an strap on base where one normally couldn't fir a bottle cage.The bottle is soft and the heart-valve works great for a powerful blast of water. Also being soft when banging about it flexes reducing the shock load on the attachment mechanism. I think this contributes to its resistance to getting bumped off.The binding plate on the bottle is removeable so if need be, one can replace just the bottle.I was able to mount a Topeak pump under it on the left using the same cage holes. It doesn't interfere as the bottle twists out to the right. In fact, it helps guide it.
