Arundel Mandible Sideloader

Side-loading cages are essential for frames with tight geometry, such as full-suspension mountain bikes or smaller road frames, where a vertical bottle entry is physically blocked by the shock or top tube. The Arundel STR-Mandible allows you to slide the bottle in from the side, making it much easier to access your hydration without having to maneuver around frame obstructions.

This model is configured for right-side entry, which is optimized for mounting on the seat tube. When mounted there, the opening faces the drive side, allowing you to reach down and grab your bottle easily while riding.

The Mandible series is renowned for its high retention strength. It was developed and tested in professional MTB World Cup racing, so it is specifically engineered to hold bottles securely through aggressive terrain and heavy vibrations.

No, mounting hardware is not included. You will need to use the bolts already on your bike frame or purchase a standard set of M5 bottle cage bolts separately.

Yes, the carbon fiber used in the Mandible is designed to be both lightweight and exceptionally durable. It is built to withstand the rigors of professional racing, meaning it handles trail debris and constant use without the fatigue or corrosion issues common with some metal cages.
