Bottles & Cages
Bidon cages or bottle cages
What do we mean when we say bidon? This is a cycling term for your water bottle. Cycling water bottles conform to a size (and are regulated for races) that will fit into a standard bottle cage. We love when bikes follow standards!
While there are some unusual size or shape bidons out there, these are generally clear in their description. So you will know that a coffee cup holder is not your average bidon cage.
Bottle cages also use a standard bolt spacing for mounting on your bike. Most bikes will have a pair of bolts or bolt holes in the main triangle of the frame. And all bidons will be designed with this exact bolt configuration in mind. Many bidons will not come with bolts for installation, as your frame will have these already. Generally keeping your original bottle cage bolts is a good idea (if you can). If not, we sell bolts of course!
