Featuring three sets of mounting holes, it offers versatile frame compatibility and includes secure straps to hold odd-sized gear firmly in place. Easy to install with just two hex bolts, it’s built for durability and backed by a limited lifetime warranty, making it the go-to choice for serious commuters and adventure cyclists alike. ## Description Product description Review: Nice cage, straps ehh... - I spent a lot of time looking for the right water bottle cage for my front loader cargo bike (Riese & Muller Load4 75). I commute on it and don't drink while riding, but I wanted something that could hold a lot of different drink options from insulated coffee bottle, to water, to single use plastic bottles. The strong metal cage is perfect for durability. I really appreciated that it has numerous mounting holes spaced down the spine. I was able to use a hidden tracker holder behind the bottle cage to extend it from my mounting location on an inset cargo wall panel and then offset as high as possible over a protruding frame member. I don't love the straps, they are way too long and have to be carefully wrapped up when nothing is being carried. I plan to replace them with a Voile-style strap that's shorter in the near future. However, the straps do work and did a nice job of holding a fast-food plastic cup. I didn't even think about it while riding and several miles later, including an off-road shortcut, the cup hadn't spilled a drop. Review: Best cage on the market for oversized water bottles! - This holds my 87 ounce insulated water bottle flawlessly. I love it. My giant water bottle is lowkey my adult security blanket, and it’s awkward to carry it in my backpack. So I’ve been trying to find a cage for it that would securely anchor an 87 ounce insulated water bottle to my bicycle frame as long as I’ve had it. I’m not gonna lie: This thing is overpriced at almost $40 for what is essentially just a piece of aluminum and some quality straps, but it absolutely WILL securely hold up to an 87 ounce water bottle when it’s full (thats about 11 extra pounds by the way) with no problems and honestly the straps would accommodate something even wider, but I’m not sure how much additional width you could fit between your knees before it would become problematic. And anything taller than my 87 ouncer wouldnt fit. But the cage is super adjustable, it fits my gigantic water bottle perfectly, it’d hold any size of Nalgene bottle or any other kind of water bottle effortlessly. Also, it’s literally a two hex key bolt installation that takes about 2 minutes, and the design is totally solid for extra large water bottles. ## Features - CARRY BULKY ITEMS - Three sets of mounting holes to fit different size frames - INCLUDES STRAPS - Securely strap down odd size bottles and other gear, such as bags and clothing - Securely strap down odd size bottles and other gear, such as bags and clothing - Three sets of mounting holes to fit different size frames ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00NT4KXBA | | Automotive Fit Type | Universal Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #58,618 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #103 in Bike Water Bottle Cages | | Brand | Blackburn | | Brand Name | Blackburn | | Color | Black (Updated) | | Compatible with Vehicle Type | Bicycle | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,856 Reviews | | Handle Type | Strap | | Included Components | Bottle Cage | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 22"L x 4"W x 20"H | | Item Type Name | Blackburn Outpost Cargo Water Bottle Cage (Black, One Size) | | Item Weight | 4 Ounces | | Manufacturer | Blackburn | | Manufacturer Part Number | 7149605 | | Manufacturer Warranty Description | Subject to a limited lifetime warranty for the lifetime of the original purchaser. | | Material | Metal | | Material Type | Metal | | Model Number | 7149605 | | Mounting Type | Strap Mount | | Product Dimensions | 22"L x 4"W x 20"H | | Size | One Size | | Style Name | Practical/Functional | | UPC | 196178238489 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Vehicle Service Type | Bicycle | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Blackburn - **Color:** Black (Updated) - **Manufacturer:** Blackburn - **Material:** Metal - **Product Dimensions:** 22"L x 4"W x 20"H ## Images ![Outpost Cargo Cage - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/7166buOTTNL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: would this cage be ok for holding a battery on a Ebike conversion..?** A: I holds a 1.5L Nalgene water bottle, which is about 3.3lbs. Four pounds would probably be okay, but most eBike batteries weigh considerably more. **Q: what is the spacing of the holes for attaching to the bike? my bike has holes 5.5 inches apart, which is larger than the standard hole sizing.** A: Max spacing of existing drilled holes is 3.75 inches. However - overall length of drilled surface is 6.75 inches. So there is room enough to drill another hole in the bracket or consider adding a Wolf Tooth B-RAD 3 or 4. **Q: would this fit two msr 30oz fuel bottles?** A: I'm reluctant to say NO outright, because where there's a will, there's a way. However the bottles you mention are about 3-inch diameter each, while the cage is about 4-inches across. Thus the cage will not cradle 2 bottles of that diameter side-by-side snugly. I would not buy it for that purpose. The cage does work well for single larger diameter flasks and bottles that will nest between the side rails. **Q: Is it a blayblad are a cup holder** A: It has seven platypus cupholders. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice cage, straps ehh... *by N***D on December 4, 2025* I spent a lot of time looking for the right water bottle cage for my front loader cargo bike (Riese & Muller Load4 75).

But what I have done is installed two on my lower rack and fended eyelets (it just worked out I had a rack with the extras I was able to use with braze on mounts) HD CARGO RACK by origin 8. I didn't plan on it, but I'm pretty handy so I found a way just shy of zip ties. So my cages are on each side of the front wheel. I ride a surly 26 wheel lht. A touring God of bikes. So I had a pretty install for where I wanted them and they come with a few attachment hole instsllation options for this very reason. I'll say that I thought they were black to match my racks but they are dark gun metal gray. At least the ones they sent me. I didn't gripe much about it. It's actually a nice contrast as to where they are. They seem sturdy enough and I put a rolled tent and sleeping pad (one on each side) to get a feel for it. Does the job. Nice long securing Straps. Can also see myself loading up a few groceries on them. I've never been more excited about the set up. And I've had and still have quite a few bikes I rotate in the week. These cages just made this bike that more serious. If everything ended tomorrow, I'd ride out in this bike with a place for enough gear to survive a 72 hour zombie shut down attack. Overall they're a win. If you're on the fence figure out how you want to use them first. Simply They'll work just fine on your standard braze ons. If you want or can be creative with your set up, Blackburn makes it easy for you with a solid product. You may need to be handy (or know a good bike person) with extra hardware and washers, but a good base is there. ## Frequently Bought Together - Blackburn Outpost Cargo Water Bottle Cage - Blackburn Outpost Elite Cargo Bag Rolltop 6.5l 420D Nylon - Moosetreks Bike Stem Bag | Bikepacking Food Snack Water Bottle Storage | Bicycle Touring Commuting Insulated Pouch --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/13984431-outpost-cargo-cage](https://www.desertcart.be/products/13984431-outpost-cargo-cage) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
