Increased capacity bottles?
I’m trying to find larger water bottles than the 24oz I carry right now but am having no luck. The problem is finding a larger bottle that will still fit into a bottle cage and everything I’m finding tends to be wider rather than taller. I’m not interested in any type of bladder/backpack device.
Anyone know a source? |
If you don't have to have something that is specifically made to be a bike bottle, then you might find something that is in the sport drink section of your local convenience store. That is were I get my bottles.
24 oz is about the limit for me though for fitting in my bottle cages. I can stuff a couple extra in my back jersey pockets if I have to have more. I use a powdered mix for my bottles so it's easier to carry that and just refill when water available along the way. |

Gatorade makes some 32 oz bottles you can often find at any sporting goods store. The Zefal Magnum is actually less expensive though.

There are (AFAICT) three companies selling 1-liter bottles for bike bottle cages: Science in Sport, Elite, and Zefal. Some of these are hard to find in the USA, or are overpriced here. Zefals seem like the best deal.
However, Soma Fabrications sells a colossal 38-oz bottle. Depending on your frame and where you're mounting it, you might need to get a Wolf Tooth bottle-cage repositioning dingus. And perhaps an extra-stout bottle cage. |
