Titanium bottle cages

Campag for the win!

..... dunno about that. I had one these BITD.



A pain in the arse locating it back in, looked crap on the outside after a while, and utterly minging and rank on the inside because you couldn't clean it properly. In fairness, I shouldn't have binned it, kept it and advertised it as NOS here to fund an house extension.

I used to lust after those BITD. It kind of looks dated now, and not in a good ‘classic’ way

If humans eat plastic for a long time, will we eventually be able to digest it? If so I'm proposing a breeding program and, yes, I'll take the Nobel Prize, in my hemp carrier bag.

A titanium waterbottle must be kidney money

Not really, I got it for about £18 IIRC (750ml)
The Ti cap makes a horrible grinding sound so I’ve swapped it with the stainless one and vice versa.

A great quality of Ti is that it imparts absolutely no taste at all. You don’t realise how much other materials do until you’ve used a Ti spoon, bottle etc.

I realised the list I was looking at was an affiliate link hipster outdoor article and it was like 150 quid for one.

Try a Systema bottle mate, no weird taste. not cycling specific, but I use nothing else now.

I prefer really really cheap plastic water bottles in the hope that they're laced with something good

Quite a nice looking patch that.
