How long before the bottle falls and breaks?
My bet is that whoever designed this, doesn't ride a bike.

You need adblock.
That's the blank space I see.

Forgot I had adblock on my home computer. Just realized how less clustered and clean this website now looks. At work, it can be a bit much at times.

don't know what you guys are talking about. I pimp this cage anytime I have a bout with the gent's at my local country club, nawutimsayin?
I don't think its a bad idea... but I don't think I would use it without knowing it was more secure than it looks. The moment you get off a decent road this think is going down.
