The Arundel Looney Bin exists for bottles that don't fit the standard 73mm diameter mold. Convenience store water bottles, stainless steel insulated bottles, wine bottles, oversized hydration containers, and just about anything between 65mm and 95mm diameter will lock into this cage. The adjustable mechanism uses a click wheel with a ratcheting system that tightens or loosens in distinct increments, so you can dial in exactly the tension you need for whatever bottle you're carrying.

The click wheel sits on the outside of the cage and operates smoothly even when you're wearing gloves or your hands are wet. Turn the wheel clockwise to tighten the internal strap against your bottle, and it clicks into position with tactile feedback. Each click represents a specific tension level, which means you can consistently return to the same setting if you're using the same bottle regularly. When you need to release a bottle, turn the wheel counterclockwise and the strap loosens immediately.

This cage makes the most sense for commuters, bike campers, and anyone who wants to carry something other than a standard cycling bottle. If you prefer insulated bottles for keeping water cold on long summer rides, the Looney Bin accommodates the wider diameter without forcing you to jam the bottle in or worry about it rattling loose. Bike touring setups benefit from the ability to carry larger capacity bottles, and gravel riders appreciate being able to cinch down bottles tight enough to stay put over rough terrain. The cage also handles carrying wine bottles or growlers if you're riding to a picnic or picking up beer from a local brewery.... Read More
