It doesn't say it in the description, but there is a screw on the bottom that allows you to adjust the cage for all sorts of drink sizes. Never have to worry about it being to big/small....

I love CamelBak's medium-sized 750ml bottles, but this is the only cage I've found that will hold them. It adjusts easily to fit a wide range of wide and narrow bottles. Topeak came up with a clever idea and implemented it brilliantly. This cage is simple, practical, and effective.

I installed this on my bike in about 30 seconds. I like the feel of it and the fact that it adjusts easily with the turn of a screw (by hand). I think a cage that adjusts to bottle size with a spring, i.e. where you can pull back the outer part of the cage and let close on the bottle, would make more sense (it be faster and easier to use on the go than a screw) but 'it is what it is.'

Great water bottle cage. It adjusts to allow bigger bottles by a little knob on the bottom you can turn looser or tighten for smaller bottles. Easy to install, all you need is the two little screws that screw onto the frame of the bike. It doesn't come with the screws though but most bikes have them already. If all you have are two holes there, then you'll have to find/buy the correct screws to install. Hope this helps future purchasers!

I bought this cage to hold a Thermos 18-Ounce Stainless Steel Hydration Bottle, Charcoal It mounts and adjusts easily and it is easy to get my bottle in and out without a lot of looking at it/slowing down. The only thing I can say that even approaches a negative about this cage is that it does slightly mar the surface of the brushed aluminum on the bottle - not scratch it, but you will be able to see where it contacted the bottle as you take it out and put it back in. It is very slight, and seems to mostly disappear when I rub the bottle, but it would not be fair to not mention it. It is also only fair to mention that Topeak makes an all-Nylon cage that I could have chosen if keeping my bottle in pristine appearance was all important. It wasn't, I didn't, and I am very happy with my choice.

I spent a lot of time looking for a bottle cage that would accept a coffee container as well as a water bottle. This was the only one I found that was easily adjustable by turning a set screw. I also purchased the Nissan hot/cold thermos container that allows me to carry either cold or hot contents and it fits perfectly in this bottle cage. This Modula waterbottle cage is well made and looks professional but is not as durable as the beefier wire type cages. I'm very pleased with it. Although some comments have indicated that a standard plastic water bottle "rattles around" in the holder, the store bought smaller water bottle does not fall out unless you're on a rough trail, however in that case, it would seem prudent for you to use a pull/push valve water container made for that purpose, or buy the larger size of store bought water bottle that fits tighter.

Fits multiple sized bottle. I can put up to a 750mL bottle nice for longer trips. Not too heavy but then again who notices weight on a waterbottle cage

I have two of these, and like them very much, except that after a couple years the lower adjustment screws corroded badly. I had to rig replacement screws myself after not getting any reply from Topeak. A good product, but watch for corrosion.

As others have mentioned, this holder is adjustable. Because of this, it lends itself to carry item other than water bottles. I sometimes use it to carry bottle of wine to friends' for dinner (nice and secure). The plastic backing also keeps the wine bottle from hitting the frame.

Another favorite use is to carry a sub from my favorite local deli (Bay Cities Italian Deli). I wouldn't think of using a normal bottle cage to do this lest it crushes my meatball or prosciutto subs.

At the smallest setting, it carries a normal sports/water bottle just fine although small 10 or 12oz bottled waters will rattle.

For $4 plus free shipping, this simply can't be beat.

The best part is the adjustment. You can do it with just your fingers. Once the cage is mounted on your bike you never need to use any tools for anything. It looks and feels like quality.
