Toray T700 All-Carbon Fibre Side-Pull Bicycle Water Bottle Cage for Road and Mountain Bikes

Securing hydration on rides requires a reliable and accessible bottle cage. This model is crafted from Toray T700 all-carbon fibre, a material chosen for its favourable strength-to-weight characteristics in cycling applications. Designed with a side-pull mechanism, it facilitates easy bottle retrieval and replacement with a single hand, a practical feature for maintaining momentum on road, mountain, or fixed-gear bicycles. With precise dimensions and a choice of finishes, this cage offers a functional upgrade focused on compatibility and reduced weight.

Features and Construction

The construction and design of this bottle cage are centred on practical performance and broad compatibility. Its specifications ensure it fits a range of bicycles and standard bottles, while the material choice addresses the common cyclist priority of weight reduction.

Material and Build

The cage is fabricated from Toray T700 all-carbon fibre. This specific material grade is utilised in various bicycle components where a balance between structural integrity and low mass is sought. The construction results in a cage that is rigid enough to hold a bottle securely over rough terrain, yet contributes minimally to the overall weight of the bicycle, which can be beneficial for climbing and acceleration.

Size and Practical Fit

The cage measures 145mm in height by 76mm in width. It is designed to mount to bicycle frames using two screws, with a precise 65mm distance between the centres of the mounting holes, matching the standard pattern on most modern bike frames. The internal design accommodates water bottles with a diameter of 70mm to 74mm, covering the vast majority of cycling-specific bottles available on the market.

Uses and Placement

This water bottle cage is intended for cyclists who require dependable access to fluids during rides. Its design considerations make it suitable for various disciplines and riding environments.

Event or Professional Use

For road racing, sportives, or mountain bike events where seconds count and weight is scrutinised, the carbon fibre construction and efficient side-pull mechanism offer a competitive edge. The secure fit prevents bottle ejection on technical descents or cobbled sections, while the easy access supports quick hydration without breaking stride or focus.

Everyday Home Use

For daily training, commuting, or recreational rides, the cage provides reliable functionality. The side-pull design is equally valuable for casual stops, allowing for simple bottle removal. Its compatibility with road, mountain, and fixed-gear bikes makes it a versatile choice for cyclists who own multiple bicycles or who use a single bike for varied purposes.

Benefits and Buying Value

The value of this product lies in its specific material choice, functional design, and the practical benefits these deliver to the cyclist. It focuses on solving core hydration access and weight management needs.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

As a durable mounting accessory, the cage is designed for long-term use across many rides and seasons. The carbon fibre material is resistant to corrosion and, with basic care like wiping clean, requires minimal maintenance. Its standard mounting and bottle diameter compatibility mean it can be transferred between bikes or continue to be used with new bottles purchased in the future.

Why Choose This Product

This cage is selected for its concrete specifications: the use of Toray T700 carbon fibre for weight saving, the 65mm mounting hole spacing for guaranteed frame fit, and the side-pull design for improved usability. It avoids unnecessary complexity, focusing instead on delivering these measurable advantages for cyclists looking to upgrade from basic plastic or metal cages without venturing into highly specialised or proprietary systems.
