This flexible element enables the cage to self-adjust to the exact diameter of standard 74mm cycling bottles. The result is a consistent, firm hold that prevents bottles from launching on rough descents, cobbles, or gravel roads, while eliminating annoying rattles and vibrations.<\/p>\n<h4 data-path-to-node=\"19\"><b data-path-to-node=\"19\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Convenient Handling on Compact Frames<\/b><\/h4>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"20\">Thanks to its open front and side structure, bottles can be inserted and pulled out straight or at an angle. This flexibility is essential on modern road and gravel frames with smaller front triangles or when using frame bags for bikepacking.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"22\">\ud83d\udce6 WHAT'S IN THE BOX<\/h3>\n<ul data-path-to-node=\"23\">\n<li>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"23,0,0\">1x Elite Custom Race Plus Bottle Cage (Skin Black Soft Touch Finish - Part No. 0140640)<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"23,0,0\"><i data-path-to-node=\"23,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"88\">(Frame mounting bolts not included)<\/i><\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"25\">\ud83d\udcca TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS TABLE<\/h3>\n<table data-path-to-node=\"26\">\n<thead>\n<tr>\n<td><strong>Feature<\/strong><\/td>\n<td><strong>Product Specifications<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,1,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,1,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Brand<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,1,1,0\">Elite<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,2,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,2,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Model<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,2,1,0\">Custom Race Plus<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,3,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,3,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Version \/ Finish<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,3,1,0\">Skin Black Soft Touch (Matte rubberized black)<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,4,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,4,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">MPN \/ Part Number<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,4,1,0\">0140640 \/ EL0140640<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,5,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,5,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">EAN Code<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,5,1,0\">8020775035603<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,6,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,6,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Material<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,6,1,0\">Fiber-reinforced technopolymer (FRP) + Elastomer<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,7,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,7,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Bottle Compatibility<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,7,1,0\">Standard 74 mm diameter<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,8,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,8,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Weight<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,8,1,0\">~40 g<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,9,0,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"26,9,0,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Recommended Use<\/b><\/span><\/td>\n<td><span data-path-to-node=\"26,9,1,0\">Road, Gravel, XC \/ Mountain Bike<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<hr \/>\n<h3 data-path-to-node=\"28\">\u2753 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ)<\/h3>\n<blockquote data-path-to-node=\"29\">\n<p data-path-to-node=\"29,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"29,0\" data-index-in-node=\"0\">Q: Are frame mounting bolts included in the box?<\/b><\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"29,0\"><b data-path-to-node=\"29,0\" data-index-in-node=\"49\">A:<\/b> No, the bottle cage is supplied without bolts.
