The Arundel Sport uses the same geometry as their carbon Dave-O cage but substitutes nylon-reinforced plastic for the carbon fiber construction. This material choice drops the price significantly while maintaining the wide arm profile and curved wrap that made the Dave-O a benchmark in bottle cage design. The nylon composite handles impacts without cracking, resists degradation from UV exposure, and flexes slightly to absorb shock when bottles get jammed back into the cage during rough riding.

The cage follows the modified Dave-O shape, with wider arms that provide more surface contact with the bottle than traditional wire frame cages. This design distributes retention force across a larger area, which means the cage holds bottles securely without relying on aggressive spring tension. Bottles slide in smoothly from the top and stay put during riding, but you can extract them with a straightforward upward pull rather than fighting against tight grip. The balance between security and accessibility works whether you're commuting on smooth pavement or riding washboard gravel.

Arundel includes two sets of mounting holes with standard spacing. The dual mounting positions give you vertical adjustment options to optimize bottle placement on your frame. If you're working around frame bag straps, need clearance from the top tube, or want to position the bottle lower for better aerodynamics, the second set of holes provides that flexibility without needing shims or adapters. The cage mounts with standard two-bolt hardware to any frame with bottle cage bosses.... Read More
