Blackburn Clutch Comp Bottle Cage

Side-entry cages are essential for frames with limited space, such as full-suspension mountain bikes or smaller frame sizes where a vertical bottle pull is blocked by the rear shock or top tube. They allow you to slide the bottle in from the side, making hydration accessible even when clearance is tight.

Yes, the Blackburn Clutch Comp is available in specific left or right-hand entry configurations. You should choose the side that corresponds to your dominant hand or the side of the frame where you prefer to reach for your bottle while riding.

The extended mounting slots allow you to shift the cage up or down by 30mm on your frame. This is particularly useful if you need to clear a rear shock reservoir, a frame bag, or simply want to position the bottle lower for easier access.

Yes, the cage is engineered to be rugged and resistant to the environmental wear typical of trail riding. While it is made from recycled materials, it is designed specifically to maintain a secure grip on your bottle even when riding over rough, technical terrain.

The Clutch Comp is designed with a high-retention profile to keep bottles locked in place. It provides a tight, secure fit that prevents the bottle from ejecting during aggressive riding or chatter, though it remains easy to pull out when you need a drink.
