Double bottle holder?

A few times now I've seen cyclists with two drink bottles mounted behind their seats. I looked in three cycling shops but they don't seem to have them. Can anyone provide me with name, store or link? I hate carrying my extra bottle in a knapsack.

thanks in advance...

Check for a shop that specializes in equipment for triathlons or time trials.

Profile Designs also make those, but they are not very good at securing the bottles and you have a tendency to kick them off when you mount or dismount. REI (if you have access) carries them.

I have one and it holds my bottles just fine. I've ridden on crushed stone roads and over bumps that I was sure would flat me... I'm yet to shake a bottle. But I have found it takes a little extra effort to throw my leg over the saddle when the bottles are in. I might lower the cages a little bit to see if it helps or not...

I have one of the Profile seatpost water bottle cages. It will also hold 4 threaded CO2 cartridges. I did lose a water bottle out of it so I just keep the cheap ones in the back.

Yea, I got bottle cages on both sides of my front basket/box. They hold bottles upright. They can hold a cup of coffee, because they're not tilted. I use stainless "canteen" bottles. A third bottle is in the frame, but it won't hold the stainless bottles, I have to use plastic.

I was going to start a new thread-

Last night, I took a FOURTH bottle with me. It was a half gallon of water in a milk jug. I carried it in my left rear pannier. I refilled one bottle once, and at the end of the ride , I took my helmet off, and doused my head with cool , refreshing water, Gosh, that felt good.
