fsubanshee Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Anyone ever mount a water bottle to their banshee. I want to be able to carry drinking water and i hate the camel back that i have. Has anyone adapted a mountain bike cage or found something else that will secure a bottle enogh so it won't fall off during hard trail riding? I thought that rmatv used to sell a kit that mounted to the handlebars but i haven't been able to find anything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 Yeah...not going to happen. And if it does, you won't like the piss warm water in that bottle from getting heated all up. Your best bet is search for a 6 pack rack for your shee...and get a small cooler. Or ride out front so you don't eat as much dirt... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
csrmel Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 you really need a cooler, because things really heat up without insulation. i had a gallon water jug on the back of my shee and it was half way filled with ice, the other half water. after a few hours it was all hot. im thinkin about makin a front bumper/rack to hold a 6 pack cooler or a gallon of water so it wont get so hot.

Justintoxicated Posted May 10, 2006 Report Share Posted May 10, 2006 I had one and it worked great, did rub the paint off my handlebars though. I'd just toss it in the cooler before the ride, but it does get warm if you are out in the sun for a long time. I had the old Maier one I believe, it kinda molded around the bars and attached with velcro or straps or something. I don't use it anymore though, I like the camalback better. Stays cooler longer and I can throw some plugs in there as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bansh88 Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Just get tough and deal with a camelbak. Or get a 6 pack rack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
