Bottle Cage Clamps
I have an old faithful frame which only has the one set of bottle mounts. I
have been looking for a clamp system and I found a brilliant summary of all available on the market he http://nordicgroup.us/cageboss/ The problem is that most of their recommendations are simply not on sale anymore or avaialable form bike shops o/s that will ship internationally. Has anyone seen something like these locally? As ever, thanks for your kind input. BtC |

Try these: http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/product-0...ounting-23.htm http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/product-0...Black-5939.htm http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/product-S...bolts-9951.htm http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/product-M...-Cage-5797.htm St John Street Cycles are very reliable suppliers in my experience. Of course you could just take the frame to your LBS and get them to put in a pair of Rivnuts (fancy pop-rivet type boss) for about $20. -- Cheers Peter ~~~ ~ _@ ~~ ~ _- \, ~~ (*)/ (*) |

My only disappointment with my bike was that it only had braze ons for one
bottle cage. I bought 4 cable ties, 2 more cages and cable tied them to the frame. 5000kms later they are still working a treat, have been on lots of corrugations etc, touring etc and no worries. Kathy. who doesnt get too tech minded |

Although the whole rivnuts thing sounds pretty good, but I am mortally afraid of damaging my beloved frame (even if it did come with just the one bottle mount). The frame has well and truly passed its use by date seeing as I bought it around 1982 (Tange Cro-mo road frame), but hey, I know when its time is up when it gives out... BtC |

Check for wear on paint or tubes. Colour matched PVC tape or duct tabe might be a good idea. Tom. PS: I have a Tange Cro-Mo frame (road, but with canti braze ons, longish WB and high bottom bracket. Comfortable and robust, but not as zippy as the Le Mond frame... Steel frames last and last. |
