Water Bottle Cage for Bike
As we have seen, the lack of water is not
only uncomfortable, but can cause serious health problems. For transportation
of liquid during the cycling trip, you can use a backpack or bag, but if you
participate in the race, then this method is unacceptable. In addition, the sun
heats the pack much back. Ride in a group also does not allow the use of this
option, because all the participants have to run to stop every time someone
wants to quench your thirst. Therefore, it's best to place a container with
liquid on the bike.
Fresh water can be stored in a conventional
plastic or glass bottle, and in particular cycling jar intended for these
purposes. The second option is preferable, since such vessels have a valve that
allows to opening them with one hand. In any case, to fix the bottles need to
install a special attachment, which makes it possible to easily and quickly get
the water and drink.
Plastic
bottle holder is one of the most useful
accessories. The correct choice of this device depends on the reliability of
fixing the jar and ride comfort on the bike. As a result, you or your friends,
traveling behind can fall and get hurt, and the constant stop and searches of
the lost bottle able to spoil the fun of any cycling. There is a huge variety
of types and designs of bicycle bottle cage. They differ from each other in
position, material and manufacturing method of fastening. Most often they are
Bottle holders and fasteners holding it. The retainer is regulated and
unregulated, and the holder can be mounted on different parts of the bike.
Frame is the most common and convenient
option. Virtually any modern bike has special threaded holes with a
diameter of 5 millimeters, which are located on the bottom or the seat tube of
the frame and are used to mount the pump or bottle coasters. Typically, the
distance between them is 64mm, and they have standard dimensions and are
suitable for any appropriate type bottle cage. BTW, you can select the plastic
bottle holder at Banggood. Besides, you can easily get other bike accessories (e.g.
bike
rear bag) there with high quality and reasonable prices.
