4. Maintenance
- Cleaning: Wipe the bottle cage with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. For stubborn stains, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by rinsing with water and air drying.
- Inspection: Periodically check the mounting screws for tightness. Ensure the cage remains securely attached to the bike frame.
- Material Care: The PC material is wear-resistant. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive materials that could damage the finish.
5. Troubleshooting
- Bottle Not Fitting: The cage is designed for most standard cycling water bottles (0.5L-0.6L, 20-24oz). If your bottle is significantly larger or smaller, it may not fit securely. The flexible design accommodates slight variations.
- Cage Feels Loose: Re-tighten the mounting screws using the 3mm Allen wrench. If the issue persists, ensure the cage is correctly positioned and the screws are fully engaged.
- Bottle Ejects on Bumpy Rides: Ensure the bottle is fully inserted and the cage arms are securely gripping it. The cage is designed for a firm hold, but extreme terrain or improperly inserted bottles may lead to ejection.
