I noticed somewhere in the Thorn Cycles website they were touting a Profile water bottle cage that was supposedly designed specifically for them. From what I can ascertain, it's the Kage. (http://www.profile-design.com/products/hydration/kage/) I've had bad luck with various metal cages and am interested in using the 40oz model (http://www.kleankanteen.com/2products/klean-kanteen-40oz.html) Kleen Kanteen which I'm assuming would require the use of a rather stout and springy cage.

Anyone use this combo or something similar together?

Thanks.

I don't believe that the 40oz KK will fit in a regular bike cage. I think only the 27 oz ounce one does.

If you are looking to fit a much larger cage for 40oz bottles, Topeak makes the Modula. It might not be that easy to track down, but a search of the web should turn up some possibilities.
