FIDLOCK Twist Bottle590ml/20oz + Base Systems | New Leak-Proof, Self-Sealing Bottle Cap | Bike Water Bottle Holder with No Screws & Attached Bottle | Cage Free Magnetic Rack | Smoke

I was dubious of this design but now that I've had it a few month, I love it. I was under the impression it was only magnets holding it in, but it also has a clever mechanism so it's much stronger than just the magnets. I feel it's more secure than a cage even. I've wrecked many times and purposefully tried to disengage it and I've not been able to do it once. I can't even get it to pop out with my knee when I try.At first I had a hard time finding the right alignment to snap back in while riding, but my body quickly learned. So just like it's no longer difficult to snap into my clip-less bindings, so too this just becomes natural after a few hours of riding. I actually find it easier than a cage now to re-attach. One just needs to just hover around the area, and the magnets will pick it up.The valve cover is pointed the wrong way for me. When I pull the bottle off with my right hand, I want to flip it up with my thumb as flipping it with my index finger is awkward and it flips back towards my face. But I don't ride in much mud and found that it was simple to remove without damage.I think it woudl be good for tight frames. My frame is an XL and the design is such I have much space on the down tube. But some bikes are more cramped and I could see one could put on an strap on base where one normally couldn't fir a bottle cage.The bottle is soft and the heart-valve works great for a powerful blast of water. Also being soft when banging about it flexes reducing the shock load on the attachment mechanism. I think this contributes to its resistance to getting bumped off.The binding plate on the bottle is removeable so if need be, one can replace just the bottle.I was able to mount a Topeak pump under it on the left using the same cage holes. It doesn't interfere as the bottle twists out to the right. In fact, it helps guide it.

The magnetic water bottle is a fantastic addition to my biking gear. It fits perfectly to my bike frame, staying securely in place even on rough terrains. The magnetic attachment makes it easy to access and replace while riding, without fumbling with traditional bottle cages. Its design is ideal for carrying isotonic liquids, ensuring I stay hydrated and energized throughout my rides. This bottle is both practical and reliable, making it a must-have for any cyclist.

Did not received the color I had selected originally, but I love the product so far.

A must to fit 2 bottles in small frames. Or, to prevent leg rubbing against the bottle cage. My 11 year old son's 47cm frame couldn't fit 2 bottles without rubbing his leg. This had a few extra mm clearance and it worked great. Pricy, but a 2nd bottle in frame is priceless.

I’ll start with the dislikes-Price, kind of expensive for a water bottle systemQuality of bottle plastics-Doesn’t seem as malleable as other bottles I have from Specialized, seems kind of fragile and possibly could crack from squeezing to hard (hasn't cracked yet).The likes-Kind of cool that it attaches magneticallyEasy to remove from MountSturdy even after going over the bars, bottle stayed in MountCover on bottle keeps out dirt and dust.So why only 4 stars? It’s a gimmick, it’s kinda pricey, plastic doesn’t seem long lasting on bottle. It does look clean without the water bottle cage but if your riding your bike why wouldn’t you want the water bottle mounted? That’s really the only thing I see that’s unique about it (for the price) I’d stick to regular water bottle holders unless you must have the latest. Just my opinion. If you want to see this bottle in action please visit my YouTube channel under Simple Pleasures MTB, thanks

Got this for a small triangle frame on the YT Jeffsy XL (model from 2020). There are two parts to control the orientation, the bottle attachment (which stays connected to the bottle at all times) and the frame attachment (screws onto the frame). Each can be swapped directions and mounted up or down.The bottle cage works but I first had to follow the in box directions to flip the orientation of the attachment that is on the bottle; then I mounted the part to the frame attachment upside down. In every other configuration, including ones that had the bottle mounted upside down, I could force things into place but it was clear it wasn't going to work long term.With both things "wrong" from how the default would be it worked right and looks like the perfect fit. I can grab the bottle easily while pedaling and put it back no problem. Magnetics and the twist feature have kept the bottle in place over plenty of chunky rocks, smaller jumps, and miles of riding. It'd be nice to have a larger reservoir, but that wouldn't fit in the space without a custom bottle.

Canyon Aeroad size S fits the 590+450 combo as well as the 800+590/450. The 750 does not fit with another size on this frame. They are easy to get used to and almost find their home as long as you get it close, I didn’t have to look down anymore after using them for a month or so. I love how they work and look, well worth the money! No bottle cage on the frame if you want one bottle or no bottle for the ride, and the 590/450 bottles are slimmer than conventional bottles&cages.
