Description
The XLAB Gorilla Bottle Cage keeps a firm grip on bottles over rough roads to keep them from ejecting, especially when used on rear saddle mounts like those used on triathlon bikes. Its holding power comes from six high-shouldered arms, a tall retention tab, and stiff carbon construction. Delivering 2X the security of conventional cages, it's still easy to insert and remove bottles thanks to its flared entry.
Claimed weight is 39 g. Requires traditional bottle shapes with a deep, uniform groove near the top to clear the retention tab. Bottles such as the Camelbak Podium are not compatible.

Reviews
I transferred classic road bike cages to my new gravel bike. First ride I lost bottles multiple times as I hit washboards or other bouncy spots. These Gorilla cages are the real deal, extremely secure bottle and not crazy hard to get my drink in and out of. A little pricey, but definitely worth the extra cost as they really work well.
Gorilla bottle cages are the best you can find, I have these on my TT bike and the bottles stay put.. period, plus I know this is subjective but I think they look the best and Im not really a fan of bottles on the seat tube but I think Gorillas even look great there also, the matte black comes with black lettering which I put on my S-Works Tarmac..
XLAB products always exceed expectations. I listen to other cyclist complain about their water bottles always jumping out of their cages and onto the road. With XLAB Gorilla cages, I never have to worry about that happening. It's easy to grab my bottle out of the cage and easy to get back in with the confidence of knowing I won't lose it on the next bump in the road.
