Adhesive Bottle Cage Adapter for Bikes Without Bottle Bosses
The Arundel El Jefe is a simple, elegant solution for mounting a bottle cage on bikes that lack traditional bottle cage bosses. Whether you need to add hydration capacity to the frame, seat post, or fork, El Jefe provides a convenient mounting point for any standard bottle cage. Using industrial-strength 3M adhesive backing and a cable tie system, this adapter creates a secure, permanent mounting solution that stays put even on rough terrain.
Installation is straightforward: clean the mounting area, peel off the backing, stick in place, and secure with a cable tie (zip tie). Once your bottle cage is installed, it covers the head of the cable tie for a clean, professional appearance that doesn't look like an afterthought. The combination of 3M adhesive and cable tie attachment ensures the adapter won't slip or shift during riding, providing reliable bottle retention on any surface.
