Summary: Bike Cage
Comment: These are very nice and hold the Klean Kanteen water bottle perfectly. It is easy to get the bottle out too, but secure enough that it won't fall out when mountain biking. Very quick delivery.

Comment: Klean Kanteen Water Bottle Bike Cage for 27-Ounce Bottles
I have used this product for over a month now and I do not have any complaints. The product is well made and fits my Klean Kanteen water bottle like a glove.
I would perhaps like for the manufacturer to consider making the product in metal, which is more sturdy, IMHO.

Summary: Great Bottle
Comment: I like this a lot, especially when comparing it to plastic, stainless steel just seems much cleaner. The only drawback is in learning how to use the cap. Because the bottle is not plastic, you can't squeeze it, so you have to use the special cap and it's really just a matter of getting used to it.

Summary: Keeps dropping my Klean Kanteen
Comment: My main problem with the design is that it keeps dropping my bottle, I'm a pretty active biker and I can't count the number of times I've been going down a hill only to have my Klean Kanteen completely fall out. On the other hand it is essentially the only game in town, so take that as you will.
I love my Klean Kanteen, pretty iffy on the bike cage

Summary: Serves it's purpose, could be designed better
Comment: When I saw that the Klean Kanteen company was backordered on the bike cages, and then Amazon started to carry them, it became clear to me that they were a hot item and I needed to buy some. I went out and purchased 3. I recently installed one of them in the primary bottle cage position (on the diagonal bar) and went to install my original bike cage that came with my bike on the vertical bar. i was struck with surprise that i could not fit the smaller bike cage onto the vertical bar b/c the klean kanteen bike cage was blocking it. i understand that they want to make this fit the majority of bikes, however the designers of it should have taken into consideration that many people have 2 water bottle bike cages on their bike. in my opinion, there should have been more selections for positioning, where as right now there are 2 slits which give some wiggle room, but not enough.
another suggestion is more about their manufacturing process. they need to taper or round off the edges of the top portion of the bike cage because they are tearing away at my 27oz bottle. all it would take is a better design of the mold, or a post-manufacturing process to file down the edges.
other than that, it's a great and cheap way to hold my klean kanteen water bottle. now...wouldn't it be sweet if they made a thin walled hydration-pak? it would obviously be heavier than a camelbak hydration pak, but thin walled stainless steel is pretty light and they could make it built into the back of the backpack. just an idea...
