I bought these to give more space for a frame bag on Paris-Brest-Paris. I found that the cage mounted on the seat tube wouldn't reliably hold a bottle on bumps - I lost the bottle during the first stage. Luckily it went to the side of the road and no-one crashed. Several more times I nearly lost the bottle but I managed to catch it with my knee. The plastic is way too flexible.

Bought to allow access to bottles when using a frame bag. In that aspect it works. However, due to the shape at the bottom (angled) if the bottle isn't the same shape then it doesn't sit right down and can come loose on bumpy roads. I've had a couple bottles come loose, and one came out completely. This has happened to High 5 and Torque bottles. SIS bottles seem ok
