LIGHTER THAN EVER
At just 28.5 grams, Custom Race X cuts weight by 35% versus the previous model without sacrificing strength or reliability.
This result comes from a fiberglass-reinforced construction and an optimized cage geometry that suits any frame and triangle clearance.
EASIER INSERTION ON COMPACT FRAMES
Ergonomics are designed to guide the hand and simplify every movement—even at speed. The longer front area improves adaptability and flexibility as you insert the bottle on the fly, while the new lowered profile eases side access on compact triangles such as full-suspension MTBs and gravel bikes.
The updated design also locks the bottle firmly at the base to eliminate vibrations and oscillations while riding.
FIBERGLASS-REINFORCED STRUCTURE
The cage body is made from fiberglass, a glass-fiber reinforced composite chosen for its excellent balance of mechanical rigidity and low weight.
Custom Race X resists impacts, vibrations and typical off-road stresses without deforming, ensuring reliable performance even after intensive use.
THE WORLDTOUR TEAMS' CHOICE
Custom Race X is the most widely used bottle cage in professional road cycling. Its secure retention at high speed and compatibility with all standard 74 mm bottles make it ideal for top-level racing.
It is available in a wide range of colors to integrate with any race bike and is adopted by leading WorldTour teams such as Bahrain-Victorious, Alpecin-Premier Tech, Team Picnic PostNL, Cofidis e UAE Team ADQ.
