Blackburn Comp Water Bottle Cage

It holds your water bottle. It does a good job. It's probably identical to the water bottle holder you had on your first bike. It's not made out of carbon fiber or titanium or whatever, just good old aluminum, but it's still quite light. Most importantly, it's cheap enough that you can buy a bunch in and put one on all the water bottle mounts on all your bikes for max water/tool carrying capacity.

does exactly what it is intended to do. Easy to bend to fit bottles tight if that's your thing. definitely would recommend to anyone for the price

It does exactly what it's supposed to.



My one gripe is that the mount holds the back of the cage off the tube by about a 1/4 of an inch (unlike my King cage). This might not sound like a big deal, but on a hardtail with seriously low standover and a tight space to mount a cage, it causes larger bottles to barely squeak by.



Not a huge issue, more of a frame-by-frame consideration. Still a great product (so far).

Ive had multiples of these on numerous bikes, and never had an issue.

Jim Blackburn started out in 1977 in Santa Cruz CA making aluminum bike racks and soon thereafter his classic aluminum bottle cages. They still have not been surpassed (though often copied).



These are timeless.



Classic design, strong yet light, unbreakable, affordable.

I've bought Blackburn cages several times over the years and they're always solid and dependable.
