Erstellt: 7. April 2026The reviewer purchased and tested a 7-gram ultralight carbon bottle cage from AliExpress. They subjected it to extreme testing on both a gravel bike and a full-suspension mountain bike on very rough terrain, using a heavy 1.36L bottle. Despite severe impacts and drops, the cage successfully retained the bottle throughout all tests. The reviewer was so impressed they are ordering more. They note the included titanium screws are poor quality and recommend using the optional retention arm for security.
