Isnt it a myth that attaching a carbon fiber bidon cage to your bikes handlebars using zip ties or traditional clamps is the most secure way to do so, especially in wet conditions? Ive seen many pros and enthusiasts alike using this method, but Ive always wondered if theres a better way to ensure the cage stays put when the roads are slick and the last thing you want is your water bottle flying out.
What if, instead of relying on the grip of the zip ties or clamps, we were to use a 3D-printed custom mount thats specifically designed for our handlebars? Wouldnt that provide a more solid connection and reduce the risk of the cage shifting or coming loose? Or am I just overthinking this and the old ways are still the best? What are your thoughts on alternative mounting methods for carbon fiber bidon cages in wet conditions?
