Mounting bottle cages to any fork.

[jeremy11]

I run a side business sewing bikepacking frame bags and fork mounted bottle/stuff sack bags (the "Everything Bag").

(Posted in classifieds due to commercial interest - moderators, we can move this elsewhere if more appropriate).

For years I've experimented with different ways of mounting cages to forks without the threaded bottle mounts, and have finally found an "off the shelf" solution that's mostly perfect. It will work with my Everything Bags or any other bottle cage, Salsa Anything Cage, or similar.

Here's the write up on my blog.

Will you be selling these?

The plan is to sell them I just need to order a big box from SKS and figure out pricing.

1. wrap fork with duct tape (for grip)
2. attach cage to fork with two hose clamps

This works for normal bottle cages but not the bags I make.

Interesting. I'm curious to see how that holds up over time. This could be a nice solution for carbon forks. I'm looking specifically at 3 of these, a King Cage Manything Cage, and an easy way of moving some light bulky items out of my bags. I might do something like a sleeping pad on one side and my cook pot on the other.
