Your bike will break in half before your bottle falls out, July 10, 2011
By RizzleDizzle (Here, There, and Everywhere)

I bought the 'Topeak Modula Java Bottle Cage' because of it's strap-on (my first, I swear!). Previously, I had your standard aluminum cage, and my Camelbak Better Bottle would from time to time jostle itself loose and ricochet across the pavement, this led to my fine bottle obtaining a rugged and handsome patina (actually it looks abhorrent). Then one fine day I was our riding, and my thirst overwhelmed me, so I reached for my handy bottle, and wouldn't you know it, my massive strength overpowered the aluminum cage, and I ripped it off. So to prevent the recurrence of this tragedy, I looked to Topeak. I saw the strap-on feature, and was immediately intrigued, compelled, and even curious if you will. Nowadays, weather I use my Camelbak Better Bottle, or my extremely fine 24 oz Polar Bottle, I ride assured, that no matter what ridiculous stunt I pull on my bike, my water bottle will NEVER fall out.

Just works!, May 27, 2011
By David (San Diego, CA)

You can use this plastic cage to mount regular water bottles or coffee tumblers. The rubber band that holds the top part together comes in handy. Its basically a water bottle cage with an extra tie up on the top to hold tumblers. But I found that I liked it better than a regular cage.
It fit one of those Polar 24oz water bottles great.

Clumsy in in standard bottle cage position, July 3, 2011
By Austin Spafford (Redmond, WA)
|
|
My girlfriend and I tried our best to make this cage work for us, and there wasn't a single bottle (standard dimensions or smaller) that could fit the product and work well. The biggest problem is that the top prongs prevent the bottle from being tilted sideways as it is pulled out, thus effectively locking it in.
Also, the yellow rubber used for the detail near the top shreds just like an eraser when rubbed, leaving yellow crud on every bottle we tried. Whatever it is, that material just isn't right for this application.

A convenience accessory that is versatile and sturdy, August 19, 2011
By Someone (Alameda, CA, USA)

I like my Java Cage because it fits both my Aladdin Recycled/Recyclable Mug and my Thermos Stainless King Compact Bottle, either of which holds 16 ounces of coffee (Starbucks Grande equivalent). Evironmental benefits aside, bringing your own mug saves 10 cents each time at Starbucks and 10 to 50 cents at 7-11, which adds up quickly if you have a coffee habit! Using a vacuum bottle saves even more, and allows you to prepare your coffee just the way you like it.
In practice, reusable mugs are not completely splash-proof, and so should be carried empty and used at your destination. Only a sealed vacuum bottle should be carried filled.
With its adjustable strap and securing band, the Java Cage seems to have been designed for secure holding, not for en-route access. I would recommend a coffee cup ring if you intend to drink your coffee while riding (and you don't mind inevitable splashing!).
My cheap cruiser bike lacks pre-drilled bottle cage mounting holes, but even when used with an add-on solution like the Elite VIP Universal Mount, the Java Cage mounts firmly and does not wobble.

Perfect for the 16 oz insulated Klean Kanteen, August 2, 2011
By KG (Maine)
|

I bought this to carry my morning coffee in the 16 oz insulated Klean Kanteen. I couldn't be happier with it. The cage fits the canteen perfectly. In fact, I was able to remove the rubber strap because the bottle clips in snugly without it. There's no way for the bottle to bounce out.
The cage is completely adjustable both lengthwise and the bottom diameter. The strap is also adjustable to fit a wide variety of diameters.
Note, if you use the rubber strap you might want to keep it slightly loose so that you can slide a bottle in and out with one hand while riding.

Works as advertised, February 5, 2012
By A. Bailey

It holds my Stanley thermos and allows me to drink hot tea on sub-freezing days. It's a real boost to the morale, especially when you question why someone should be riding a bike in sub-freezing weather at all.

Decrease your attachment to objects!, April 12, 2012
By Greg Baker (Birmingham, AL USA)
|
|
If attachment to things is your problem, then this cage may be able to help you! First, simply attach an item you want to decrease your attachment to (such as a water bottle or Java container) and trust it in to do the letting go for you. Next, take a little ride on your bike. On arriving at your destination you may feel the need for a refreshing beverage. When you reach for your water bottle ---Presto! Chango! It's GONE! Now wasn't that so much easier than learning to meditate? Detaching yourself from thirst and/or dehydration may a bit be more difficult...
