Any bottle cage will be functionally the same….
£45? A pair for less than half of that:

Bad design surrounds us, so this doesn’t surprise me. It just surprises me that no-one has copied the Ciussi Inox and marketed it at £5.99.
The harshness is that you need to lower your expectations/standards/tastes or just increase your budget. The latter usually wins over for cycling related purchases :-)“Training is like fighting with a gorilla. You don’t stop when you’re tired. You stop when the gorilla is tired.”0 -

Which is why these aren't offensively expensive at £11 each.Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed.
Faith is the denial of observation so that Belief can be preserved0 -

For goodness sakes, they're just bottle cages. Buy a couple, fit them and go ride.WyndyMilla Massive Attack | Rourke 953 | Condor Italia 531 Pro | Boardman CX Pro | DT Swiss RR440 Tubeless Wheels
