Epitome of strength for extreme bottle retention

No worrying about losing your bottles and missing out on your essential hydration. The Kaptive 14 ‘s 6 arms built with extra layers of carbon fiber bring about a whopping 14 lbs of grip force – keeping that bottle put! Its tall 120mm (4.7″) sides clench your bottle with unrelenting strength and support even large bottles. This cage was meant for any challenge you take it through and really shows off while mounted underneath down tubes.

Extreme Grip, easy access & style?

That combo does exist! Despite the Kaptive 14 ‘s tight squeeze on bottles, the cage features a funnel shaped top that actually helps guide your bottle while removing or inserting it. The high-quality, precision-made carbon fiber material features a sleek matte finish with, allowing your bike to shine while performing at its best.

Location, location, location.

You don’t want to put just any cage under the down tube. Planning to jump off rocks on your ride? Then you need a cage that will hold wherever it’s placed. The Kaptive 14 comes with massive retention grip, so you can place it where the most extreme gravity force is to be had, and your bottle or pod will still be there when you need it the most.

Sometimes frames won’t have the bosses you need to mount the Kaptive 14 underneath, but you can still place your cage there (space accordingly) when you pair it with the Bear Hug mount.
