Stainless bottle/ cage recommendation

[Bernard Duhon]

Mates,

 

I would like to migrate to a stainless water bottle.  Most folks with em I noticed a rattle I could not tolerate.

 

Recommendation for a rattle free stainless bottle & cage ( of any composition) 

 

[Eric Norris]

These have worked well for me. Adjustable fit to keep the bottle firmly in place.

I've enjoyed the Iris King cages. Very secure and quite elegant looking.

Cheers, John

+1 for king cages and I’ve recently discovered Bivo water bottles. They’re excellent and silent. 

[Brian Turner]

King Iris, Delta INOX, VO Touriste… all the same basic design but at varying price points. Personally, I have the INOX cages on all my bikes. They don’t have the shiny finish of the King, or VO versions. Most people ask me if they are titanium, but they are just stainless.

I use the Kleen Kanteen classic stainless bottles with them, and it looks classy and doesn’t rattle.

I've settled on Nitto R cages and Bivo water bottles. I like this combo; no rattle yet. 

I have both the insulated and uninsulated bivos that I swap depending on weather. It's nice to not have ice cold water on cold days in Minneapolis.

Salsa Nickless Cage is my favorite.  Kind of a copy of the Nitto R, with fatter tubing and a lot cheaper.

Gonna throw my hat in the ring for the Arundel stainless steel cage, which I've had for 10+ years without a hitch. And it's slightly adjustable as the steel has some give to it. I've put whole bottles of wine in there, iced coffee cups, my regular Yeti, etc. https://www.biketiresdirect.com/product/arundel-stainless-steel-bottle-cage?adl=1&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiArfauBhApEiwAeoB7qJY2LE6AjEPFs4ISofj1-YeVOCe5M2K-Uf8yY8I5FzTODM30xouNXhoCtb8QAvD_BwE

Will: where do you find those screw-top, stainless steel, insulated Bivos? I just looked and found only the usual pop-spout type.

Thanks.

In other news: REI was recently having a 1/2 price sale on their "Microlite" ss insulated bottles; these have a full-coverage flip-up spout cover which I really like for dirt (= horse leavings) riding around here.

Cages: Iris all the way. (Remember breaking 2 expensive and very beautiful Nitto cages with 28 oz bottles.)

Actually, those Arundels look very possible since the design would readily expand to accept slightly oversized bottles like the REI Microlite. Must look into those.

My choices: King cages and Polar water bottles, both made in Colorado.

Patrick: i just have the Bivo in the pop-spout type. They are a little funky with the air straw thing, but I like them. I am careful not to leave water in them over a period of days because the lid/straw is finicky to clean. 

[Jay P]

For stainless bottles I have liked these insulated 17oz bottles -- $15 for a pair from Amazon -- that work well in King Iris cages  (search for "fine dine 17 oz" and you'll find).  

[Sarah Carlson]

Thank you for the Bivo suggestion, those are just what I have been looking for. I ordered two and am going to give them a test run soon!

I have a Klean Kanteen 800ml w/ a bamboo top. The top would rattle a little during rides but I put a tiny strip of Newbaum's on it and it's now rattle free. It fits snugly in a King Iris cage.  

[Pam Bikes]

Arundel Looney Bins are adjustable and can hold all my bottles - Thermos, Nalgene, Swell, Polar Bottle, Corksicle....Dial holds it tight so no rattles.

[christian poppell]

I have this Bivo and use Nitto R cages I purchased from the list. No rattles and the bottle goes in and out of the cage smoothly with no rattling. I've been really impressed with the Bivo. Its easy to drink from and keeps ice super long, even during the summer here in Phoenix, (~115F). Another bonus is the water does not taste like plastic. 

And if you're averse to logos, the Bivo logo came off easily with acetone on the un-painted stainless model. (I own this one https://drinkbivo.com/products/bivo-trio?variant=42287836954810)

Thanks for the bottle/cage suggestions.

 

As fate would have it my LBS just received camelback’s Podium insulated stainless water bottle.

I got to touch & feel & buy & support.

Put in on my 17 year old Stainless King cage & voila no rattle & easy flow of water.   

Now I don’t know what to do with the plastic cage I bought , just in case😉
