Are bike water bottle cages universal?
While almost all bikes can accommodate a water bottle cage, not every holder is designed the same. Some bottle holders are made with metal cages designed to be bent to fit different bottles, while others are made from lightweight, flexible carbon fiber or composite materials. Before choosing the right water bottle cage for your bike, check to see that your bike frame’s mounting bolts are located in a place that works for you.
How do I secure a water bottle cage to my bike?
While there is no universal mounting method, as most water bottle cages are made differently, many can be attached very simply and with basic tools. Water bottle cages generally attach to the bolts already installed on your bike frame with an Allen wrench. Once you determine where you want to mount your cage, simply remove the bolts, attach your holder, and re-tighten the bolts while holding the cage in place.
