Product Information

Full details

The Tacx Deva Bottle Cage is an ideal upgrade for cyclists who prioritize secure bottle retention on uneven surfaces like cobblestones or gravel. Engineered with a lightweight, reinforced core, it offers professional-grade clamping force that prevents bottle ejection during aggressive rides. While it excels in security, users should note that the stiff, optimized cylindrical design requires a deliberate motion to insert and remove bottles smoothly.

FAQs

Does this cage come with mounting screws?

No, the Tacx Deva is typically sold as the cage only, as most bikes come with mounting bolts pre-installed on the frame.

Is the Tacx Deva made of full carbon?

No, it features a polyamide core reinforced with carbon, which is then encased in a durable glass fiber shell.

How much does the Tacx Deva weigh?

The Tacx Deva weighs approximately 32 grams.

Can I use this for mountain biking?

Yes, its high clamping force makes it an excellent choice for mountain biking and gravel riding where rough terrain is expected.

Are there different color options available?

Yes, the Deva comes in various colors, including White, Matt Black, Red, Yellow, Orange, and several shades of Blue.

Is this cage suitable for large bottles?

The cage is designed for standard cycling bottles. Very large or irregularly shaped insulated bottles may be difficult to insert due to the cage's precise cylindrical clamping profile.

Troubleshooting

Bottle feels too tight during insertion

Ensure you are using a standard-sized cycling water bottle; non-standard or oversized bottles may not be compatible with the Deva's tight tolerances.

Cage rattles on the frame

Verify that the mounting bolts are tightened securely to the frame bosses. If the rattle persists, check that the cage is flush against the frame surface.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent retention on rough terrain
  • Extremely lightweight at 32g
  • Durable composite material construction
  • Available in a wide range of colors
  • Professional-grade design proven in cycling classics

Cons

  • Requires a firm pull for bottle removal
  • Does not include mounting bolts
  • May be too tight for non-standard, wider water bottles

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation of the Tacx Deva is straightforward. The cage utilizes the industry-standard two-bolt mounting pattern found on almost all modern road, mountain, and gravel bike frames. Simply align the cage with the bosses on your frame and secure it using your existing water bottle cage bolts.

Regarding care, the fiberglass and carbon-reinforced construction is highly resistant to standard cycling environments. To maintain the finish and ensure smooth operation, wipe the cage periodically with a damp cloth to remove grit or road debris. Avoid using harsh chemical solvents, as they may compromise the resin bonds of the composite materials over long-term exposure.
