Lezyne Flow Bottle Cage


£7.99 Flow Bottle Cage

Lezyne have made a name for themselves by taking old, boring bicycle bits and bobs, giving them a bit of a zhush, making them work better, be more shiny and somehow muchly desirable... and that's exactly what they've done here.

Bolting the Flow to a bike is easy because both mounting holes are over 12mm long.

Removing a bottle from the cage requires a reassuringly firm tug as the reinforced Composite Matrix flexes to release its cargo.

Once in, the Flow the bottle isn't going to move. This particular Lezyne cage has been across a whole mountain range on the road and on numerous bumpy excursions on a cyclo-cross bike and the water bottle hasn't budged an inch. There hasn't even been a rattle. Lovely.

Finally, and best of all, the Flow hasn't marked any of the bottles that it's had in its charge. No scratched logos, no scored bodies, no new bottles looking scruffy and dirty in a couple of rides. Smart. Literally.

Verdict - A good-value plastic cage that is a tenacious bottle holder
