cyclingnews letters about cages...
Yeah... i need to take note... Loosing both bottles in the potholes of the BKR (caught one fortunately) was a reminder... the ones i've got would be fine for most stuff but i gotta switch them for the wicked awesome Mt cages... ain't ever lost a waterbottle mt biking on the hardtail with them... so i'll take the few gram penalty and be certain to have water! Dropping a bottle sucks.
Esp when you don't have race support neutral or not...

I saw a footnote on cyclingnews or pez or somewhere that some of the teams put skateboard deck grippy stuff on the inside of the cages to hold bottles. Basically take sandpaper in your .0005g carbon cage to hang onto the thing. Interesting idea... then again you can just buy the $3 steel cage and be just as well off.
Hey G,
What the heck are you up to on your flicker page: THe little box ont the blog reads:
Found in Denied List (Sex/Personals). Entry causing block is flickr.com.
Hubba, hubba.
I like the cheap-o stainless QBP cages. Can be bent to keep bottle snug.
grams...
Always good to put a 10 oz Poland Spring in the jersey pocket for emergency use.
and you must not have read my last years report closely enough, or maybe you did...
Brucie, QBP has stainless cages? How much?
damn... i shoulda read it more closely (yes i just did now) - although it was a vague reference to the potholes and loosing a bottle... yes- a velco strap would have made a difference...
Funny - You "mr battenkill is super amazing" "everyone must race it"
doesn't bother to show this year?
Next year? You gonna get the gumption up next year?
My pals at Stedman's got the cages for me. I think they were cheap-cheap @ $10.00.
Ugly, thick tubes, black plastic buttons. Fit right in with the Surly's look.
It looks like the going rate for KingCages is $12.00...
