FIDLOCK Uni Connector + Bike Base - Universal Bike Water Bottle Holder for Plastic Bottles or Accessories with Diameter up to 80 mm - Anti-Slip Inlay for Strong Hold

I bought this for my son in law he was really impressed!

I don't write many reviews. Using regular bottle cages, I had to add a small bungie to hold the bottle in, no matter how tight or grippy I made various cages I would try. Lost 2 or 3 bottles before that, plus countless trail ejections.Then I discovered FidLock. I use the Uni on my 2020 Pivot Firebird29, where the water bottle bosses are on the outside (facing the front tire) side of the downtube. Sure it looks weird to have the bottle outside the triangle, but I appreciate Pivot designing the suspension as the priority, with aesthetics/bottle function next.After a 11.5 months/1300 miles of hard riding, not once - as in Never - has the Fidlock Uni bottle mount come lose from the lugs unexpectedly. I have the Uni mated to a 25 oz/750ml Camelbak Podium Big Chill -- a heavy water bottle. And on big hits for the weight to be pulling Away from the mounting studs as opposed to pushing into the studs if it was inside the triangle -- I must say I am More than impressed. Hard riding = chunky all CO/UT/WY stuff, mostly blue blacks or more -- bitterbrush, wheeler, rainmaker, trestle DH, freelunch, holy cross, ahab, jacksons, daves, curt gowdy, targhee, black canyon, jimmys mom, parallel, etc etc you get the picture. I may not be EWS racer but I put the Fidlock thru its paces on chop/chunk/brake washboard/etc.At the 11.5 months mark the bottom stud broke off the mount, probably too much vibration. Fidlock warranties 1 year. Took pic and emailed in with my receipt here on Azon. No questions asked, Fidlock shipped me the whole new Uni instead of just the repair part, and I had it in 4 business days.Buy their stuff or have regrets.

It's all good, but it's expensive.

This thing is amazing. Easy to install on the bike and it works as intended. Every time i go bicking with my friend i can go with my 25 ounces bottle. He on the other hand has to use a small bottle because big bottles have a big center of gravity, and they are prone to fall in mountain roads.

Works great but had to reinforce frame mounting. Really, pricing is a bit steep. Replacement bottle is far too pricey.

This is a game changer and has completely transformed my morning commute. I used to dread riding to work....dealing with traffic, the unexpected rain shower, or getting sweaty....but now I show up to work every day ready to perform. I even find myself riding more often! I take it out during breaks, lunch, and even to meet potential clients! Thanks Fidlock for helping me enjoy biking and working more than I ever thought possible.

I take a banana to work everyday! I have also used to take a beer with me to the park/beach. Such a cool accessory!!!

Coconut water carrier!

bought this to attach a speaker to a bike and kayak... the Uni connector design holds a JBL flip4 speaker perfectly

All my bottles can fit on all my bikes

Soy profesional del ciclismo, tengo una Trek fuel ex 9,8. Me hizo gracia el tema de que cuando no llevase bidón, la estética de la bici fuese más guapa. Utilicé el sistema en una cursa, lo ajuste el máximo, pero el problema... Viene cuando te montas en la bici y empieza a funcionar el amortiguador trasero. Comprime el cuadro el budin comienza a rozar en el amortiguador. El sistema de anclaje no es del todo logrado. Y puede llegar a complicar la colocación de la botella en marcha. No lo recomiendo para las personas que practican el descenso en bici de doble suspensión con poco espacio en el cuadro.

Idea molto valida e di facile utilizzo. Di contro ha che lo spessore è molto importante ed il prezzo non proprio economico.
