    I’m off to Flanders for the first time in a few weeks and I’d like to hold on to my bottles if possible.

    My Elite cages do a terrible job of holding onto my newer style Podium bottles, has anyone got any recommendations for cages that work well with these bottles? I want something where you can still get the bottle out reasonably easily if possible as I’m bad about hydrating well enough at the best of times!

    I used some cheap planet x metal ones and bent them to be extra tight. Got round Flanders without losing a bottle.

    Strange – I’ve found my Elite Custom Race cages work really nicely with my Camelback Podium. Much better retention and ease of use than any other combo I’ve used.

    Which Elite cage are you using currently?

    I use Lezyne Flow Cages, heavy but are good holders even when the going gets bouncy and if you get the knack easy to pull your bottles out (pull forward towards you to pop the tabs before removing from the cage). Not sure about those new bottles, I have not tried then with these cages, looks like they are without a good lip ¾ way up to for the cage to hold onto, but at under £10 a cage it may be worth a pop.

    I’ve used USE ones without bounce here in the south west where the roads leave a lot to be desired. Not a rough as pavé though: http://www.ultimatesportsengineering.com/use-hardware/accessories/bottle-cage

    Mind you that might just be to feed my carbon fibre issue…
