Bottle Cage AUTHOR ABC-13N Black – bicycle bottle holder for kids’ bikes

AUTHOR ABC-13N Black is a bicycle bottle holder designed specifically for kids’ bikes. It secures standard drink bottles to the frame with a compact, lightweight design intended for easy attachment to common frame tubes. The holder keeps a bottle within reach during short rides, trips to school and family cycling outings while maintaining a low profile and simple appearance.

Advantages

The cage is made to fit most standard-sized sport bottles used on children's bicycles and offers a balance of secure retention and easy bottle access. Its compact construction reduces weight and visual bulk on small frames, and the mounting layout is compatible with typical frame-mounted bottle bosses or clamp-style adapters. The black finish provides a neutral look that pairs with a wide range of bike colours.

Suitable for

• Bikes for children aged approximately 3–12 years with standard frame tubes
• Short family rides and commute-to-school cycles
• Replacement or upgrade for existing small bike bottle cages
• Use with standard sport water bottles (plastic or lightweight aluminium)

When it may not be suitable

This cage is intended for standard-size bottles; very large-volume bottles or non-standard bottle shapes may not fit securely. It is designed for typical kids’ bike frames, so some small or unusually shaped frames without mounting points may require a separate clamp or adapter. For heavy-duty off-road use or very rough terrain where bottles experience extreme impacts, a more robust or locking-style holder could be preferable.

Key specifications

• Material: durable lightweight composite (non-metallic construction)
• Colour: black
• Compatibility: standard sport bottle dimensions commonly used on children's bikes
• Mounting: frame-mounted using two-bolt attachment or compatible clamp adapter
• Weight: lightweight design suitable for small frames

How to use

Attach the cage to the bike's frame using the two mounting holes aligned with the frame’s bottle bosses or secure it with a compatible clamp if the frame lacks bosses. Tighten fasteners to a snug torque that prevents movement but avoids overtightening plastic parts. Slide the bottle into the cage until it seats securely; check retention before each ride. Periodically inspect mounting fasteners and the cage body for wear or loosening and retighten as necessary.

What to consider before purchase

• Measure bottle diameter to ensure compatibility with standard sport bottles
• Check whether the bike frame has bottle bosses or will need a clamp adapter
• Consider the type of rides (casual vs. rough terrain) to choose appropriate retention strength

Usage recommendations

Use with lightweight sport bottles and tighten mounting screws to manufacturer-recommended values where available. For frames without bosses, pair with a suitable clamp adapter; check the cage periodically and replace if any cracks or significant deformation occur.
