Defying Gravity

Kaptive 10 requires 10lbs of grip force to release a bottle. This cage boasts 6 unyielding arms that are 120mm (4.7”) tall and wrap around the body. The bottom base supports bottles with a 3 mm thick bottom shelf.

The 5 mm rigid upper hook, clenches onto deep-necked bottles resulting in exceptional retention.
HOT TIP – Pair with the ICE FLOW OR AQUA FLOW bottles for an additional 2-3 lbs of grip force.

Ultra Convenient

Cage mouth funnels outward along circumference allowing self-guiding cage access and removal without looking.

TOP TUBE ACCESS

When you need extra storage for hydration, you can easily strap your Kaptive 10 anywhere along the top tube of your frame when you pair it with the Bear Hug mount. When mounted on the top tube, the Kaptive 10 is within quick reach, resulting in easy access to your bottle and almost instantaneous refreshment.

LOCATION SPECIFIC

The Kaptive 10 is optimized (but not limited) to the following frame locations.

PART OF DAWN TO DUSK’S CAGE ECOSYSTEM

Kaptive 10 is a component of a comprehensive system where the right cage, in the right place, and the right type of terrain come together and revolutionize the way riders carry hydration, prevent dehydration, and allow athletes to explore longer. While most traditional frame cages are stand-alone, do-it-all products, the Cage Ecosystem is a network of cages synergized to withstand the forces that cause bottles to launch. Introducing Dawn To Dusk’s Cage Ecosystem. See How The Cage Ecosystem Works

Behind The Design

Not your usual looking cage and for some very good reasons. We call this a straight pull cage, as the bottle can only really be extracted by pulling the bottle straight out from the Kaptive 10 cage. A cage with a 4.5 kg (10 lbs) retention force is a major achievement and requires many proprietary design elements that we cannot disclose. We literally had to start with a clean sheet in order to achieve the design objective. It took many iterations and extensive testing over several years to achieve the goal. The result is that this has been the world’s best selling 10 lbs grip force cage design for over a decade. Ideal for use as an additional bottle using a Dawn to Dusk Bear Hug additional cage attached to a toptube or anywhere else you have room on your bike. Great for use in very tough terrain with slopes up to 15% and obstacles up to 38 cm (15″) high.
