Elite’s claimed weight for the cage is 40g. This is matched on my home scales. All in all it’s a decent weight for a product that feels pretty robust and promises durability. Lightness and top performances -VICO is made in an innovative carbon fiber material which makes it very light (only 23 gr), resistant and reliable. From time to time carriers may deliver earlier or later, or on non working days however this is cannot be guaranteed nor should it be expected.

The design is pretty straightforward, with a structure that wraps around the bottle at its side and front. The rear of the cage features a little ‘shelf’ at the base which the bottle rests on while at the top there’s an angled tab of sorts that provides additional grip. It results in a snug fit with the bottle, seemingly, held very securely indeed. The Elite VICO Carbon Cage is the first-choice of carbon bottle cages used by the best World Pro Tour teams in Road Racing.The granting of a best price is not combinable with other promotions (e.g. "free articles) from Bike-Discount. The spacing of the mounting holes for a standard bottle cage is 64mm / 2.5in apart, measured centre to centre. This matches the standard spacing of the bosses on most bikes. While we can’t say that all bottle cages will definitely fit all bikes, the overwhelming majority of each do fit each other. Where should I put my bottle cage on my bike? To the touch the Custom Race Plus appears to blend firmness with flexibility. This balance varies depending on the area of the cage. Around the base that is secured to the bike frame the cage is pretty rigid. As you move to the front of the cage this is superseded by a degree of flex. The rubber insert itself is pliable and you can see how it might ‘adapt’ to the various shapes of water bottle.

Perhaps the simplest way of carrying more bottles is buying a cage such as Topeak’s Ninja Cage, which can be strapped to your bike with a set of zip ties.
