It's missing one piece of information though. It looks like you can mount the Looney in one of two positions but doesn't indicate how far apart these two are.

Taking a look at the picture to see what I mean, could you do me the courtesy of taking a measurement?



I'm presuming the space between the bottom two holes will be exactly the same.

A 32oz Gatorade bottle might fit underneath if you can mount the Looney Bin cage lower and further away from the front wheel as the King Cage Lowering Flat Top would albeit with a narrower bottle. An oversized Nalgene bottle won't fit simply because of its cylindrical shape. The diameter of the Gatorade bottle does narrow towards the bottle cap though.
The cage will fit up to 95mm bottles which is 3.74 inches diameter, I use these Nalgene bottles, and they fit just fine, howbeit with the looney opened all the way up to insert the bottle into the cage and I can turn the screw to lock it in. https://nalgene.com/product/48oz-wid...ralite-bottle/ Noticed that the bottle is 3.5 inches in diameter.
