Some people might find it helpful that it is to hold a bottle the size of a disposable bottle, not a larger bottle that is typically found on bicycle. The smaller size actually looks really good, i'd say perfect on on my 1971 Schwinn Varsity, narrow wheels and frame tubing. The chrome also fits in perfectly with all of the other chrome and bright aluminium on the bike. The leather pairs very well with the color of the gum wall tires (but would probably look great with black wall tires also. f I can find a bottle in chrome or brushed aluminum in an appropriate size it would be quite a looker !

Nice quality, seems to be fairly well made. Wraps appear to be synthetic "leather". Contacts the frame in two spots only (not entire length), making it less likely to trap moisture and easier to cut protective gaskets. My photo shows the cage attached with vintage tube clamps (not included).

As long as you understand it is a "retro" cage, then you will be very satisfied. It has the finish and gauge of chromed steel wire that is very like my cages from the 1970's- so vintage in appearance. I have it mounted on a restored 70's lugged steel italian bicycle.

I'd give this product a 4 out of 5. When I purchased them I thought I was buying a vintage (i.e. NOS) but they turned out to be a classic looking Retro (i.e. New). But I'm very happy with them and have recently bought another!!

Strong, light with 21st century materials and build with that great 60s-70s look. Proper cage for any build!

Real nice looking. The leather portions help to hold the bottle . Looks great on a vintage bike.

Right at home on my lugged steel Colnago Super. Leather is a nice touch. Very tight grip on the bottles is my only concern. Might work itself out.

Great product, well made at a good price. Just the thing for my vintage Raleigh.
