Radrover Aftermarket Accessories - Water Bottle Mount

[@pedroclaro7822]

That's so cool! I wish all touring bicycles had that preinstalled

[@e-BikeLife]

Me too!

[@DilipBanerjee]

I just bought my first e-bike and came across your video while searching for ideas. This will not work on my Giant e-bike, but your idea is so brilliant it should be adopted by the Rad company 👍🏼. Thanks for sharing.

[@tigerbeforyou181]

Great video and thanks for tipping us all off. I bought the bracket, a white one to match my 2019 Radrover. And since it’s only money I attached an expensive matching orange CARBON bottle cage. Elegant!

[@e-BikeLife]

Hey, glad to hear that it worked for you! Thanks for watching and taking the time to connect! Much appreciated. I'd love to see those cages!

[@hobbiehobbs]

How did you mount one left and one right while maintaining the opening toward you when seated on bike? I can’t find a left and right pair of holders.

[@e-BikeLife]

hobbiehobbThanks for taking the time to connect. As always, it's greatly appreciated. I'm sorry it was so long ago that I did that that I don't recall how I did it.

[@StonebrakerDoesStuff]

I saw this video was 4 years ago…u still alive homie

Hi are they come with bottle holder? i look in the web they say not come with bottle holder

[@ArnieandJo]

Hugh Wong No, you have to buy the water bottle cages separately. There is a link in the description to some on Amazon.

[@rambling_rob7035]

The '19s have a spot on the down tube below the battery. Looks like a tough spot to get the bottle out. Love this solution. That'll be on the wish list.

[@reaperstory5100]

Vagabond_Rob I did mount one on the bottom of my 2019 in the spot you mention, but there’s no way to safely pull it out while riding. It’s better than nothing though.

[@kinguvclubz1]

Vagabond_Rob and as you ride the dirt and mud and water kicks back up onto the part where you put your mouth.

[@ArnieandJo]

This bracket and bottle cages work so well! Really happy I found this solution.

[@wookiee260]

Can you please post a link to the the cage. Thank you!

[@ArnieandJo]

Tried posting them here. But, not working tight now. Look above in the notes.

[@rory5229]

tried so many times to buy this mount but can't get a shipping qoute off that website to Spain ... do you know if they ship to Europe .Can't believe Rad don't sell em ....

[@ArnieandJo]

Rory I'm sorry, I have no idea about their shipping policies.

[@johnhand6796]

I bought the bottle holder mounting bracket and installed it and then put my 21 oz water bottles in, but the handlebars are hitting the tops of the bottles. I have a 2019 Radrover. Looking at your video again it looks like your handlebars are sitting up about a inch or so higher. Did you modify your stem?

[@ArnieandJo]

Yes, I do have a couple inch riser.

[@smashimone]

You didn't mention much about the bottle holder for the recommended bottle holder bracket. The amazon link for the bottle holder product is no longer sold. Any replacement recommendation for the bottle holder?

[@e-BikeLife]

I'm sorry, any cage will work really. The one that I use seems to be back amzn.to/3hG23pD

[@saadapso]

I know that you have mentioned that any water bottle cage will work, but the majority of all water bottle cages will Mount to the bracket that you have here, and be facing sideways, instead of to the front, like your’s is. From what I am seeing, you need a cage that has a side Mount and then faces forward. Do you have a thought about this?

[@e-BikeLife]

The ones I used did have a side mount, but there isn't any reason you couldn't have a front mount installed. You would just insert the bottles from the side rather than as you see here. Might even work a little better. Hope that helps.

[@stevesupalla350]

Looking for those side mount water bottle cages... Are they a special item? If so point me in the right direction so I can order a set. Thanks! Just got my bike on the 31st

[@e-BikeLife]

The bottle cages are standard. It’s this mount that makes it happen. mri-denver.com/shop/ols/products/front-bottle-holder-mounting-bracket

[@stevesupalla350]

@@e-BikeLife Hello again. Just got my bike Friday man its a big bike wow.... Ordered the drink holder brackets this evening. Thanks for all you do... Pictures to you coming when I'm finished...

[@reaperstory5100]

Just looked at a picture of the 2018 and it looks like it has the mount on the bottom of the frame underneath the battery just like my 2019. Most people must miss it because it’s located on the bottom of the bike.

[@e-BikeLife]

ReaperX78Thanks for taking the time to connect. As always, it's greatly appreciated. Yes, it does have the bosses down low. Not convenient, as you can well imagine. And, what were they thinking, even with fenders, the bottle is going to get filthy. No, thank you.

[@kinguvclubz1]

ReaperX78 The problem with it being on the bottom if you’re riding and you run in the water or dirt all of that kicks back up right onto the part where you put your mouth

[@richiroproductions8262]

omg thank you for posting this! love it! ordering now (and canceling my other water bottle mount order)! just got my rad mini this past week!

[@e-BikeLife]

Glad I could help!

[@richiroproductions8262]

Rad Rover Way I’m sorry if I haven’t gotten to see all your videos yet. I just stumbled onto your channel last night. Any recommendations on a phone mount? I’m a bit different in that I have a rad mini and handlebar real estate is limited and also curved and tapered on the rad mini in spaces not already being used. I was almost thinking of using the top top tube ... but that wouldn’t be good for gps and also not immediately realizing if it falls off while riding.

[@hughheli]

Thanks for the video, i have Radrover 2018 looking for this Bracket long times and thanks again

[@DanielLopes-jt8yl]

That’s from MRI Denver I just finished pricing that before seeing this. They have so many wonderful items at their site. Speaking of only money I priced $800 bucks of things I want. I have a RadMini 2018 if you here something on that due mention. I will keep an eye out as to updates you and Rad Power Bikes.

[@bobmurphy2811]

Great video, thank you. Where did you get that handlebar? It appears to offer more real estate for accessories. Thanks again, Bob

[@e-BikeLife]

Hi Bob, thanks for watching. That is the Jones SG 2.5 Aluminum H-Bar that you can see in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/n5DdqItun819rac

[@javiermendoza2601]

Where did you get that bracket at. I love the set up great video.

[@ArnieandJo]

Javier Mendoza there is a link in the description to where you can buy the bracket and where you can buy the water bottle cages.

[@jlcochrane]

They’re out of stock 😩

[@ronaldramsey7774]

Great advice but you could shorten the video to about 2 minutes and impart the same info.

[@ArnieandJo]

Ronald Ramsey thanks for taking the time to connect!

[@chuckiegsdodgegarage7422]

I dont understand what the big think is about water. Like your really going to do a marathon and if you dont have water your going to die. Just throw it in your basket like I do, and be done with it.

[@ArnieandJo]

Chuckie G's Dodge Boy Mopar Garage. That’s ok. You don’t have to get it.

[@JohnvanGurp]

It probably depends on the climate of the bike rider. If it’s a hot desert area you would definitely want to have some drinks with you. You could also pop a Bluetooth speaker in one of these bottle holders, etc. I’d love to be able to bring my insulated coffee sipper mug on rides.
