# Cageless Cycling Bottles This Cycling Water Bottle is Free of Clutter and Weight By Rahul Kalvapalle | Published 2015-07-21 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cycling-water-bottle References: [gizmag](http://www.gizmag.com/fabric-cageless-water-bottle/38540/) & [fabric.cc](http://fabric.cc/shop/waterbottle/) The Cageless water bottle is a cycling water bottle, developed by British cycling design company Fabric, that does away with the ubiquitous water bottle cage. Most cyclists don't really pay attention to their water bottle cage, but it is actually one of those things that could be refined and optimized. This bottle's design is rather simple. Rather than necessitating the use of a bottle inside a separate cage, Cageless comprises a BPA-free 600-milliliter bottle with built-in retaining clips and a number of plastic studs, that can be mounted on the bicycle's existing cage boss. This setup ensures that there's no naked bottle cage sitting on the bicycle frame when the bottle isn't used, and also makes it easier to retrieve and attach bottles. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.1/10 - Popularity: 60% | Activity: 25% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Cageless Cycling Bottles:** Opportunity for innovative water bottle designs that eliminate the need for cages. - **Optimized Water Bottle Cage:** Opportunity for improved water bottle cage designs that are more efficient and aesthetically pleasing. - **Streamlined Bike Accessories:** Opportunity for developing bike accessories that eliminate unnecessary clutter and improve functionality. ### Who This Affects Most - **Cycling Gear and Accessories:** Opportunity for companies in the cycling industry to create innovative and practical gear. - **Plastics Manufacturing:** Opportunity for manufacturers to produce BPA-free bottles and plastic studs for attachment on bike frames. - **Product Design and Development:** Opportunity for design companies to create user-friendly and visually appealing cycling products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pump-Integrated Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bottle-bottle.md) - [Lightweight Sports Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-sports-bottle.md) - [Phone-Integrated Water Bottle Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/builtin-phone-mount.md) - [Shatter-Resistant Glass Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onlywater.md) - [Smartphone-Holding Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ringo-water-bottle.md) - [Precision Hydration Vessels](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/okapa.md) - [Label-Less Wine Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crate-by-fourth-wave-wines.md) - [Angled Grip-Friendly Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/m2o-bottle-design.md) - [Cleaning-Friendly Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/breakbottle-water-bottle.md)
