BlackburnOutpost Cargo Water Bottle Cage (Outpost Pewter, One Size) (Discontinued)

Like almost everyone else has said - these are great racks. I hesitate to call them "bottle cages" because although they are cage-like, and can certainly hold water bottles, they are so much more versatile than that. Expensive compared to other options? Yes. "Light" compared to other options? Maybe not but it doesn't matter because: More versatile compared to other options? 100% yes. Yes, the straps are long-ish and it's easy to complain about that when you don't need long straps....but the second that you do? You will be very happy about it and honestly, it's easy to address in a variety of ways. I think I was left wanting a buckle quick-release on the straps, but I understand why they didn't do it (probably because they are sturdier/more reliable with just the drop in/slide in option). I definitely don't think it was a cost-cutting measure. Lastly, I like that they are not so wide/bulky that they can be attached in the frame but also wide enough and strong enough that they could serve as primary bag holders when attached to a fork, etc. Great racks and definitely worth the price.

As a dedicated bike packer, finding reliable gear that can withstand the demands of long rides is crucial. The Blackburn Outpost Cargo Water Bottle Cage proved to be a game-changer for me, offering the perfect combination of durability, functionality, and convenience.

Constructed with high-quality materials, it feels sturdy and robust, even when navigating rugged terrain. I have complete confidence that my water bottle is safe and secure, regardless of the obstacles I encounter along the way.Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase of the Blackburn Outpost Cargo Water Bottle Cage. It ticks all the boxes for me - sturdy, durable, spacious, easy to install, and lightweight. As someone who spends countless hours on the bike, having reliable gear is essential, and this cage has exceeded my expectations. Without a doubt, I'll be investing in more Blackburn products in the future. Highly recommended for fellow bike packers seeking a dependable water bottle solution for their adventures!

Most water bottle cages are built for small water bottles. Like, 20oz small. I'm a thirsty man who sweats a lot. I drink a lot of water. I mounted this to my top frame mount. For longer rides, I carry 32+20+20oz of water. That's usually enough for me to go all day, especially if I 'camel up' before the ride. I added the Nalgene insulated cover to my Nalgene bottle, which also has a strap on it. This combo securely holds the Nalgene even on the roughest trails and keeps my water nice and cold.The price is a little steep for what this is, but it's made of quality material with anti-slip straps. Works for all sorts of things - tool bags and pouches, water bottles, whatever you can get creative with. Highly recommended.

Good quality but straps should be velcro instead of buckle so I switched out with velcro and fastened to back bike rack. Works well.

I bought two of these Oupost cargo cages to use on my gravel rig and hardtail that I use for bikepacking. While they're not as light as some other cages out there, they're sturdier which for me means more than saving a little weight. The cages are metal. I have other cargo cages that are a composite material but wouldn't last with some of the rougher conditions I've used these in.Yes, there are only two sets of three mounting holes. You can still mount them to a fork though that has bosses. I like the fact that they can be adjusted by choosing any one of the different mounting holes to keep them clear of chainrings, etc..They can carry large Nalgene bottles, Klean Kanteens, cargo bags and even a crowler can of your favorite local beer (see picture). I'm purchasing two more cages to mount permanently to the gravel rig so I don't have to swap back and forth anymore. Blackburn did a good job with these although they could do with a third set of mounting holes. I read a lot of people drill a third hole for fork mounting which could save people the time and effort.

Used this on an overnight bikepacking trip to hold sleeping pad and another one to hold my camp stove and a few things. Straps are solid and hold tight, the cage is perfect for holding larger items.

this is an excellent cage for attaching just about anything.I did a test-run with two attached to the fork-bosses of my bike-packing rig; on one side i had a jet-boil stove and fuel, on the other i had 32oz of water in a nalgene. both fit just fine, and with the included straps there was no concerns with items slipping or coming loose. the backs of the straps are rubberized to give a no-slip grip, but they're not stretchy, so get them good and tight.i also test-fit: a down sleeping bag, a tent (without the poles), and a dry-bag full of clothes. all fit fine.the only issue is what to do with the extra length of straps so they don't get caught in the spokes. i tied them around the cage itself, but i don't know how well that will hold up over many, many miles. might be something to check every so often while on long rides. for this reason alone i would give 4 and 1/2 stars if i could. otherwise 5 stars all around.i would recommend to anyone interested in bike-packing.on a side note, if i could make a recommendation to the company? sell just the straps. they would be good on their own for attaching all manner of goodies to the frame.

Able to fit my very large beverage holder and looks to be able to carry anything as long as it fits the straps only down side would be the straps are long so smaller items the straps would hang down causing a possible hazard

Will also serve as a good alternative storage space. Easy to install and pretty handy!

ich nutze die halterung seit ca. 6 monaten und fast ausschließlich für nalgene flaschen. dafür ist es wirklich gut, stabil. was mir gar nicht gefällt, sind die befestigungsgurte, die sind vielleicht für leute, die das als gepäckträger nutzen ganz nett, aber für eine flasche wohl einfach nicht gedacht. man kann sie aber einfach austauschen, ich habe z.b. einfach elastische kordelzüge mit "schloss" dran gemacht.fazit: top halterung, ausbaufähige gurtlösung.

śpiwór i materac znalazł swoje miejsce - polecam super

Thumbs up!
