The Topeak CageMount is not easy to install. When you unscrew it the whole thing falls apart.
After trying it out a couple of times I'm not happy with the product. The metal band that goes around the handlebar post left a scratchmark even with padding. The actual mount sticks out so far from the post that with a full bottle installed it leans and tilts down. It doesn't look and feel stable.
The whole contraption looks clumsy to me--at least with the Brompton. May be it could work with other bikes.
Will next try the Minoura cage mount I got at Flying Ball last month.

ReplyDeleteThe only difference is the womens' model comes standard with front and rear fenders.
