New bottle cages
Since I got my S3 frame I was looking for a bottle cage that fits this frame in style. Yep, I am that crazy 
Anyways, came across those today and have decided to give them a try.

They hold bottle very well, but I need to take a ride outside to see HOW well they hold.
But they do look good IMO.

Very nice, don't know how well they'll hold a bottle though. Bike looks beautiful, might be getting an S2 next month or February, can't wait.

What kind of pump is that on the other side? Do you have a pic you can post of the other side?

Nice choice, and ummmm no, you're not the only person on these boards obsessed with finding just the right stylings for a b-sickle. The OCP bunch comes to mind right off the bat!!
It's great your search ended in satisfaction!!!

How much did those set you back?
I recently got two traditional stainless cages (King) for my Lynskey Ti bike. Not putting carbon cages on it ... abomination!!! Not to mention probably much more expensive. My cages were $13.00 each. And they hold a bottle just as well.

I think that top one is the same one I have with a ProBikeKit design. They were super cheap but they taste terrible and the top will pop open randomly.
I am sure there is a CamelBak Podium bottle to match those nice cages
Edit: they are the same.

Just to update on bottle hold ability. Took quick 20 Km ride outside today and these cages hold bottles like nothing else I've had before. I mean - very firmly
