Long shot question: Anyone using an Elite Coussi Elite? How about a Purist bottle?
More specifically, are you using the two together?
I just had stainless Elite bottle cage delivered, This was before I read reviews however. Seems like some folks are disappointed in the cage‘ s bottle holding capabilities. They report that while some bottles fit it better than others, it also doesn’t hold bottles very well in general.
So, I’m shopping for a bottle, looking at the 23oz Specialized Purist
and wondering if it’d be a safe bet for the Inox.

You should be fine if it is for the road. If it is gravel or all chip seal you may have to bend it inward slightly to give it a tighter grip. I have 2 of the Inox Ciussi cages on my Flyte and year they are a bit loose but you can snug them up by pushing the top bar down a bit.
