So on this beautiful day I had intended to go for a road ride in North Wales, however I’ve left my water bottles at home.

Will any of the off the shelf mineral waters stay snug in an Elite Race bottle cage ?

ie this type of thing ?

That should fit, there's a Buxton version too.

Yeah, the round 750ml ones generally fit sometimes with some persuasion. The more square ones also can be made to work but more persuasion needed which makes them less stable when getting empty.

I've been using a 1250ml (squash?) bottle recently as my second bottle in the heat on 3+ hour rides, very snug in cage.

Just don't throw them away by the roadside when you've finished with them.

How dare you, I’m not doing a sportive!
