Strengths: Look nice. Light weight. Trendy carbon.Weaknesses: Insecure hold for large bottles on rough roads. Questionable long term durability.Bottom Line: Received 2 cages as a gift that I had "spec'd". They hold reasonably well and look nice, but I have lost several bottles on rough roads. One of the cages has partially cracked/broken in the tab area which keeps the bottle from sliding out the bottom of the cage.

Strengths: Light.
Good looking.
Strong (so far, 3 months).Weaknesses: None that I see at present.Bottom Line: These are nice carbon water bottle cages. Can't beat the price. Other carbon cages can be up to 50.00 a pop. I got both of mine for less than 30.00. They are light, they look great, and they are holding up well so far. No complaints.
Favorite Ride: Any ride without rain

Strengths: Beautiful finish, tight secure grip will hold large water bottles (like Polar)Weaknesses: Weight may vary from advertised weight by a little.Bottom Line: I have the Weyless Carbon Team 1 cage that is advertised by Supergo to weigh 27 to 30 grams. I weighed one on an Ohaus balance scaled with calibrated weights and got a weight of 29.3 grams. Overall, this carbon cage looks nice, and it holds a large Polar water bottle very securely in the upright and angled positions (seat tube & downtube positions). I never had a bottle come loose while riding over bumpy conditions or rough roads. I like it so much I bought a second cage. The only thing this cage can't do is hold a water bottle upside down -- it won't work well as a behind the seat cage holder (you use the Minoura behind the seat cage mounts for this).
Favorite Ride: Chicago's nearly nonstop Lake Shore Drive Bike Path
Price Paid:
$30.00
Purchased At: Supergo, where else
