ELITE Leggero Carbon Bottle Cage

You've spent money shaving grams off your bike — wheels, saddle, bars — and then bolted on a pair of cages that weigh more than they need to. The Leggero Carbon fixes that. At just 13 grams, it's one of the lightest cages you can actually race, and it's the one more WorldTour teams pick than any other.

Light doesn't mean fragile, and it doesn't mean fussy. Elite injection-moulds the Leggero in Italy from carbon, which is far stronger than the fibreglass-reinforced resin used in standard cages — so they can strip away every bit of material that isn't doing a job, without losing grip. Your bottle stays put over broken tarmac, cobbles and gravel, and unlike many superlight cages it works with any standard 74mm bottle, so there's no need for special shaped bidons.

Finished in matt carbon with subtle graphics, it looks right on any high-end build.
