Reviews over the

Elite Custom Race

Easy bottle cage, has been on sale for years, so 1 of 2 broken, can buy exactly the same one again after 5 years!

Pros & Cons

Works well and finds it a very nice sleek water bottle holder.

Pros & Cons

Seats firmly and holds up well. In rough terrain, it stays firmly in place on my Cuba mountain bike. After 800 km still exactly as fitted.

Pros & Cons

Easy to attach. Easy to use, water bottle is easy to take in and out and the holder still remains sturdy. Multiple choices of colour combinations.

Pros & Cons

Especially putting your water bottle back on while cycling is super easy.

Pros & Cons

Easy to use

Pros & Cons

It feels solid right away, very rigid but easy to get the canister out. The screw at the bottom is not ideally placed for screwing. You get away with it, but it takes longer than with other bottle cages.

Meets expectations exactly. Bottle stays in there just fine. Also perfect for 750ml bottle

Pros & Cons

Bottles sit just right firmly in the holders but can still be easily grabbed out

Pros & Cons

Easy to mount. Looks great on the bike and keeps the drinking bottle wobble-free and secure.

Pros & Cons

Very good

Pros & Cons

Top

Meets all expectations. Bottle sits securely and is still easily removable. Had the same one on my previous bike.

Pros & Cons

Super

Pros & Cons

For me a pleasant and beautiful bottle cage. I do not consider weight etc. but especially the aesthetic side attracted me.

Pros & Cons

Just good bottle cage use it for years also on MTB, and have never lost a bottle.

Pros & Cons

Great bottle cage with a sleek look!

Pros & Cons

Using the Elite thermal metal bottle in a metal cage was a problem as neither would 'give.' This cage has just the right amount of flex to hold it and enable it to come out.

Pros & Cons

Fine bottle cage. Bought together with Elite Fly Bottle. The bottle is very tight on its own. Could be a bit looser for cycling, considering the force you have to exert to pry the bottle loose and put it back. Probably better suited for mountain bikers (where more firmness might be required).

Pros & Cons

Nice sturdy holders with a good price/quality ratio. They are very rigid so the water bottle sometimes goes in a bit awkwardly, but because of that they stay in place very well.

Pros & Cons

Bidon zit stevig maar toch makkelijk eruit te halen en te plaatsen, jammer dat ze geen sidecage maken (zijwaartsuitneembare bidonhouder)

Pros & Cons

Bottles sit securely in the holder

Pros & Cons

At first, the holder is very stiff making it difficult to place the water bottle

Pros & Cons

Good product, the material grips the bottle almost too tightly (matte black).

Pros & Cons

Never lost a water bottle before

Pros & Cons

The water bottles sit nice and secure, stay put even on cobblestone roads

Pros & Cons

Matches expectations. Other reviews also mentioned that insertion and removal of water bottle is a bit difficult. My experience is generally that this gets better over time.

Pros & Cons

Had these bottle cages on my old road bike as well, and because of the good experience, I have now ordered them for my girlfriend's road bike as well. Perfect quality. In the beginning they are still a bit stiff, but as you use it more that weakens.

Pros & Cons

Nice design and good quality materials, but way too exciting. Had used one of the Tacx water bottles (which you often get for free) and it was barely pushing in. Possibly these only fit Elite water bottles.

Pros & Cons

I have been using this drink can holder for years , on my mtb and road bike and now also on my gravel bike.

Pros & Cons

Mounted on my MTB, product as expected.

Pros & Cons

Lightweight and stylish bottle holder. However, does not hold all bottles unfortunately. Bought with a 750ml bottle that did not fit.

Pros & Cons

Bidons zitten er zo strak in, dat ik bang ben de inserts uit mijn carbon frame te trekken als ik de bidon eruit trek.

Pros & Cons

Sits firmly on the bike. Seems all good

Pros & Cons

Just fine holder for your water bottle. Holds your bottle securely which keeps your water bottle in place even on the bumpiest trails.

Pros & Cons

Very satisfied. Fast delivery

Pros & Cons

Nice bottle cage this fine match the MTB's color scheme

Pros & Cons

Pleasant bottle cages at a competitive price!

Pros & Cons

These are good water bottle cages for little money. They are easy to attach and pleasant to use. My water bottles are tight enough in the holder to go off-road with them as well.

Pros & Cons

Totally up to expectations, nice solid stuff!

Pros & Cons

Is not as tight as the previous generation. This time you can get bottle in and out easily. Disadvantage is that I did lose my bottle once now while riding my road bike over cobblestones.

Pros & Cons

Nice product that looks very good!

Pros & Cons

Have been using them for years, but occasionally one breaks due to rough use. A big advantage is that you can go for another color. Functionally they are really good, I never lose a bottle!

Pros & Cons

Looks nice, lots of colors to choose from. Bottle will not lose you even when riding on uneven ground. Unfortunately, the water bottle is too tight which damages it.

Pros & Cons

No bolts are included, unfortunately, so you have to get those yourself. Furthermore, the holder is quite tight, you can hardly get the bottle in or out while driving, and that while I have exactly the same one, which is just a bit wider (also tight, but a bit easier), maybe it will settle a bit when the bottle is in there for a long time.

Pros & Cons

Does exactly what you expect, but fine material.

Pros & Cons

Nice and solid water bottle holder, but many water bottles do not fit in this holder and if they do fit they go in and out very stiffly. This also applies to Elite's own water bottles....

Pros & Cons

The water bottles go in and out quite stiffly. I expected the same brand water bottles to fit and bought them right away. However, the elite bottle does not fit in the holder.

Pros & Cons

Nice holder. My water bottles (camelback) go in very awkwardly.

Pros & Cons

For use, it is important that the water bottle sits securely and the can be taken in and out easily. The holder meets this requirement well. Also, the mounting on the frame is good, enough "meat" through which the screws go, making it less likely to break/tear.

Pros & Cons

Nice bottle cage, however, very tight. Saw off the top lip with a multi-tool so the Tacx Shiva water bottles would fit in. The lip pressed into the water bottle at first making it very difficult to get the water bottle all the way in.

Pros & Cons

The bottle is securely fastened in this bottle cage. Even on the bumpiest trails it stays put. Furthermore, the holder looks nice.

Pros & Cons

I have been using these biddon holders for a long time.I must not have another one.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Easy to assemble, good fit.

Pros & Cons

Cheap water bottles scratch in this holder quickly

Pros & Cons

Set of matte black holders now in use on my MTB for several weeks. During the first few rides it was somewhat difficult to grab and place the water bottles, but this is already going better. Of course this keeps the bottles in place during rougher rides. Handling by Mantel as always, of course good!

Pros & Cons

I love these cages. I don't loose bottles, even big bottles on rough MTB rides.

Pros & Cons

Drinking bottles go in and out badly

Pros & Cons

Your water bottle stays in securely. The only downside is that with the matte black holder your water bottle is difficult to slide in and out at first but after a while it only gets better.

Pros & Cons

Very nice bottle cage, a bit stiff at first but over time you can put your bottle out in it quite easily.

Pros & Cons

The elite bottle cages are very nice. Bottles stay in place well and most importantly are easy to grab and put back.

Good cages- cheap and excellent quality. Look good too

Pros & Cons

Good quality only gets looser after a while so in a race the water bottle has fallen out sometimes.

Pros & Cons

Sturdy and fine bottle cage for my MTB. Bottle stays well in it during rides.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Qualita/prezzo imbattibile poi l'ho acquistato perché va' benissimo sui telai sloping soprattutto montato sul tubo piantone

Light, beautiful, clips well. My pants were slightly stuck to the holder, instantly cracked without much resistance. The points at the top make it vulnerable to snagging.

Pros & Cons

Easy to mount Stylish on your road bike Easy to use while cycling

Pros & Cons

Great holder. Bottles slide in easily and then sit securely. Getting out takes no effort.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Bottle holder works fine. Is plastic though, so durability is not yet clear.

Great bottle cage and fits well With my bike

Pros & Cons

water bottle feels fragile. slightly larger water bottle does not fit nicely. otherwise it looks nice.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Holds the drinking container very well. Even on rough terrain. Does not break and is inexpensive. Easy to assemble.

Pros & Cons

Very versatile bottle cage. I've fitted two to my bike and can accommodate up to 800ml SIS bottles easily. Dinner people reported larger bottles not quite fitting but every bottle I've tried has worked well so far. These grip the bottles well so aren't shaken lose on my gravel rides over dinner very rutted terrain.
