[Closed] Salsa Anything Cages?

Nope apart from only getting one today when I ordered more and it is missing a strap.

My personal ones are great.

Are guy having a problem?

No problems here.

Sustransing around Scotland ,5 days in (really bad cell service where I am camped now) Today left cage sheared at two points and popped into wheel!

managed to shear the bottom tab off mine after about 40miles off road (carrying 900g sleeping bag) . great idea just a wee bit flimsy i think.

I have sold hundreds of these and had two failures, one was on my own Fargo. The tabs sheared off.

But the location of he cages means they take a good hit if you lay the bike down in a crash. I know mine had taken a beating (its a race king washing out thing).

So check them after a crash and you will be cool. They won't suddenly fail, you will see some cracks first.

If you are on an epic trip on a Fargo, stick a third one under the down tube for just in case.

The one that failed had a Thermarest Prolite in a dry bag,checked the right one which had clean clothes in a dry bag and this had cracked in the same places.

Are they warrantied for off road use?

Have only used mine for about 40m off road so far with 700g in it. I'll watch it closely.

Warrantied for off road? Don't really know what weights etc .American product, so Anything Cages must mean strap a buffalo on. Never thought I would post that.

I was kidding.

Need one posted to you? We are also in Scotland. Perhaps you are passing through Edinburgh? We can warranty yours and keep you riding.

Going home on Saturday ,broke two spokes,wheel not very true.
Just pleased it didn't happen on the down from Nick of the Balloch yesterday .

4lb limit for what its worth.

Failures are pretty common it seems.

Great idea but I think a design tweak or maybe steel is called for ... I've seen 6 go so far.

I have it on good authority that Salsa have a mk2 in the works but don't expect it this year.
