I'm sure I seen somewhere you can attach water bottle cages to the sides of these.

Does anyone know if that's possible?

Mine will be going on some surly forks which have the 3 screw for mounted cages, I was hoping to add bottle cages to the forks as well.

Cheers

I've got 2 of these, 1 on each fork leg. They don't have any drillings or brackets for bottle cages, I guess you could easily fabricate a bracket which sits between the outpost and the holes on the fork to give you something to bolt a bottle cage to, bit like a pump mount.

OK cheers. that's kinda what I was thinking. was hoping it would bolt straight on to the side rather than need extending.
