Sorry, I know it's been asked before :oops:
I need a couple of bottle cages to compliment my new CR1, at the moment I'm looking at the Tacx Tao as they are relatively cheap and look good. Does anyone have any alternatives or can you confirm these are a good buy? At the moment I've chucked a couple of cheapy wire cages on as they were all my local 'bike shop' had (would have been better off going to Halfords :shock: the owner of my LBS asked me what it was like riding a carbon bike as he'd never ridden one, wasn't I worried it would break - won't name the shop but won't be going back when I need expert advice!).

A great lightweight cage that holds the bottle securely.0 -

Not cheap, but I love 'em.Start with a budget, finish with a mortgage!0 -
Good price but they look fairly workaday in the flesh. Unfortunately it's a £10 jump for anything aesthetically pleasing.Neil

I've had the Tacx on my bike for 5 years or so now. Great cages. Light, cheap and look good too.0
