MOST EXPENSIVE WATER BOTTLE CAGE?!? - Syncros IS Tailor 2.0 Multitool CO2 Cartridge Mountain Bike

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 17 ต.ค. 2024
- My Vitus Mythique front inner triangle is very small, and I couldn't fit the standard water bottle cages. Plus I wanted a solution to running a multitool and CO2 cartridge without a saddle bag or frame strap. This cage was recommended to me, and in this video I put it through the test!

Hey, going budget is not always an option, glad you decided to invest
Nice combo man. A little much as far as price goes but after you laying out the pricing it's really not too bad if you wanna carry light. Looking forward to the next man.
Thanks man I appreciate it!!
Hey man, It's me again and I wanted to recommend a couple of other products : the Zefal Z Bar Plugs or there's also the Granit Design Stach Tyre Plug. Hope these products help you. And by the way, you've been my favorite youtuber for the past 2 months.
You're back! I'll be sure to always check out your recommendations! Glad to feature your comment on this video! Thanks Henry!!
Worthy investment, IMO! I stand by what I said in your other video. This looks like a heatsink when there's no bottle attached, which is a big bonus IMO 👍
Totally agree!!
for the bacon strips, ive seen a lot of people stick them in their bars and attach the tools and strips to the bar ends. If you dont have bar ends, another option could be in the cranks
Even in an old Seth's Bike Hacks video Seth mentions keeping bacon strips in your handlebars.
for narrower/slimmer solution you can combine topeak ninja co2 holder with one 16g co2 and topeak tubicartridge r16 with a syncros is cage : chain breaker , quick link , tubeless tool, multitool , co2 16g , and of course a water bottle , all in one package and not much bigger than the bottle , BUT much more expensive ...
You’re my favorite channel to watch
Great idea you've given me to check out for my own bike! Ya $65 is expensive but I appreciate how you broke down the various other options to compare. Keep up the great videos man! Love the style and content of your videos!
You use the muc off stealth or Lezyne bar inserts for the tubeless repair kit. Also there is Lezyne bar plug tool with tool bits. They go into handle bars and are away tucked in.
What a combo! The cage looks sick. I certainly hope that it doesn't break or come loose when doing crazy jumps!
Good to see two brake lever in those riding shots
Try a uswe hydration pack. Your back will still sweat but the comfort is way above all the rest. Everything stays in place. I personally use the uswe flow for dirt biking and mtb. It’s the shiznit. But I’m here looking for a bottle cage for short rides
That's exactly what I've been looking for, cheers mate.
Bacon strips: Just tuck them in your waistband like the rest of us.
For the bacon strips, buy a fork cork and put it in the bottom of your streerer tube. This will let you fit bacon strips and other small items into your steerer provided that you find a way to make it not rattle
I like that idea the best! Thanks!!
Do you have any suggestions for a mountain bike seat?
Definitely depends on how wide your hip bones are. Mine are medium size and I love this seat > Carbon Padded Seat - amzn.to/3kfakmF
The ninja water bottle and multi is good doesn't look a mess and all over the place like that one
Hi, what is the nut shape thing that comes in the chain breaker ?
Just bought the cage, which is awesome, but I can't figure it out...
Rad riding clips Evan!!!
My personal way to run is with an one up edc inside the pump with a fidlock bottle . I have bacon strips installed in the bottom of the tool.
And yes it’s expensive but it’s soooo clean
Theres plain old regular waterbottle cages that are 65+ ive seen titanium ones for $200 so the $65 is a good deal for a tool cage and co2 inflatot
I really like the Women's Schwinn Aluminum Comp build. But, Schwinn just came out with a updated Aluminum Comp Womens.
Get a Wolftooth B-Rad adapter that will allow you to shift the water bottle mounts down. That will free up more space so the big bottle does not touch the frame.
I'm getting a shock with an extra reservoir so that may be super close to the cage where it sits now 😂😭
My plan is to save up to buy this Syncros Tailor IS and the Ryder 4 Up Slyder which fits onto bottle cage mounts underneath the cage. It has 4 sleeves: 2 for Co2 cartridges (comes with 1 co2 cartridge) 1 that holds two tyre levers and 1 that holds a slugplug tubeless repair kit. I also have a Scott which makes getting the syncros a good idea because Scott decided to be a special child and use mostly Torx bits on the bike. so that makes finding the right multitool basically impossible
my only issue is I can't get my hands on the Syncros Tailor IS and people overseas can't get the Ryder thing when I tell them about it lol
Wow that's awesome, you will be set to have epic rides and be fully prepared for anything. I hope to one day ride a Scott
@@EvansMTBSaga Hey, I would love to know how the cage and tools are holding up before I get it. Heard that there could be rust issues with the tool, is this true?
@@meekalsc4646 Nope, no issues with rust. I have had some of the little magnets that hold in the tool come out, but the tool still holds in the cage fine. Plus, all the magnets could fall out, but it could never come out with a water bottle in the cage.
Idk if you will see this but if your bar ends could be replaced they have tire plugs that act as you bar end
I read all the comments! Thanks for the recommendation. Any specific bar end tire plugs that you have used that work well?
@@EvansMTBSaga haven’t used any, I just saw it somewhere thought it would be something you like
chill with the hands ninja man
I know, I got better though, check out some of my newer stuff
@@EvansMTBSaga haha I'm just messing with you
Nice video! I've been considering not running a backpack but always carry so much stuff 3L of water, tools, tubes, and video equipment (gopro + accesories) that I don't know if I could fit 1/2 the stuff on my bike. Maybe I'll carry the backpack only when I ride with my son since I need more water and his tube when we ride.
Man you must be carrying a heavy bag! I'll still run a cycling jersey with the back pockets and put a water bottle in a pocket. I hardly use my gopro, I don't think people care about my riding footage
@@EvansMTBSaga Yea, I do. My back is always wet but I like knowing if I get lost on a trail, I'm good for a while.
That cage is sick. One thing.. what kind of mounting hardware are you using to take that shots from the bike (first person shots) I want it to do something like that.
Just gopro mounts all rigged up together. I bought an assortment pack a while ago. Clamped it to the seat tube, then a 90, then a straight extender.
@@EvansMTBSaga thanks I will find some. You're videos are awesome 😎
Veramente bello lo voglio anch’io. Cool!!
Drill out the frame and make your routing internal... It'll be fiiiiinnnnnee
Does it compromise structural integrity? I've thought about it!
Use the “bar end tire plug” hack!
I think I've seen that hack before! Shout out to Seth!
You can carry bacon strips instead of spare tubes.
I've got some races coming up and I've been thinking about making my race bikes lighter any good cheaper carbon bars you know of?
I do not know of any. I bought some cheap carbon bars before and they were fine, but can't recommend cuz the reliability is unknown. What races? Here in Phoenix?
Prescott
I think it's in may or something
Oh you doing the MBAA XC series?
So what size water bottle can this hold?
I think mine is a 32oz. Pretty big. Most water bottles all have the little notch for a standard cage
I personally have a normal bottle cage with 2 co2 with an inflator zip-tied to the bottle and bacon strips are in my seat tube 😭
Throw a Granite Design tubeless kit in your cranks.
can you carry a 25g co2 instead or only 16g?
I don't see why not. Aren't they the same size canister?
@@EvansMTBSaga i dont think so? I may be wrong but i believe they are slightly different sizes
Put the bacon strips in your handlebars. And zip ties
Not quite the most expensive. Specialized makes an S-Works carbon fiber Zee water bottle cage for $75.
Granted, the Zee cage doesn’t have any of the features of the Syncros except that it’s a side load cage, but that’s it. Given this observation, the Syncros water bottle cage is a much better bang for buck.
$50 for the edc steerer tool? Forgetting the actual carrier cost ? Here it's like £36 for the integrated carrier tube then £50 for the tool a lone.
EDC Lite. Very different from the full-on EDC setup
@@peterlang5047 iys £50 for the tool that fits the new carriers / all of them though. Still a fair bit for essentially a very basic set of tools VS most multi tools think the thing it does the most differently is maybe a chain link holder. I get it convenience costs but it's about £20-25 for a multi-tool that's branded with everything and more than the EDC.
@@MancWithAMouth I’m seeing $40 for the tool and carrier. Yes it’s a very basic tool, but I do not believe it’s overpriced. Like you mentioned, it’s convenient having a tool in your steerer. That’s what you’re paying for, the convenience
@@peterlang5047 I don't see anywhere that's selling tool and carrier online other than shop made bundles but even then at $40 that's less than even the carrier costs in the UK which seems highly unlikely as currently I think the RRP / going rate is about £32-36 which is about $50 NO TOOL which is where my issues lie is alp in all for like an 8 tool multi tool a chain link and some tyre plugs it's going to cost upwards of £80 to $100. There's pricing for convenience and there's more than triple the price for a lot less.
@@MancWithAMouth you sure you’re looking at the EDC Lite which uses a traditional star nut?
wow $65, I wear a Fanny Pack that has 2 spots for 2 bottles and I got it for $1 at a yard sale.
Haha that's so cool! I love bargains like that. I feel like anything on my back like a backpack hurts my form when riding and pedaling
What's wrong with your hands?
What do you mean
@@EvansMTBSaga Restless hands syndrome.
Check out my newer stuff. I worked on that
Tape them under your seat fam
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life
Amen! Correct version too - KJV only!
soo late this time
That cage us just as ugly as a frame strap and your large water bottle is contacting the frame. Thats a no-go in my book.
Haha it's been working great! Love it. Thanks for watching!!
