I'm keen to try one of these, primarily to carry water on my fatbike in the winter and thus avoid taking a backpack. As far as I can see, they're just not available (other than the Brooks version). Maybe someone has one and no longer uses it?

I have one I don’t use that I could get in the post next week.
The reason I don’t use it is because it’s pants.
The material it’s made from has all the strength of cheese. It got pretty bent up in its one and only use.
I don’t remember how much I paid for it but it was way too much. Cover the postage and put some pennies in the Hungry Bear and it’s yours
PM if that hasn’t put you off

Someone posted one of these the other day as a alternative:

Ah, cheers. That would rule out use of a seatpack though.

I think the chap who posted it said that he used it with a seat pack but not the bottles (as the mounts are facing the wrong way). I wondering if some careful heating and twisting could bend the ends 90ish degrees outwards to essentially replicate the WOHO one. For £9.99 I was thinking of having a go.

Could you not source some 90 degree brackets perhaps like this

*Bracket in post above as example rather than one to use :)

Just bought one for under a fiver:

I put two bottles in my down tube, works a treat
