Finished in sleek matte black, it fits universally on standard mounts and is optimized for bottles with uniform grooves, ensuring your hydration stays secure on the bumpiest rides. Weighing only 0.15 pounds, it combines lightweight carbon construction with unmatched durability, making it a top choice for serious cyclists. ## Description The Gorilla helps prevent bottles ejecting from cages on bumpy roads, mountain bikes and saddle-mounted water bottle carriers. The cage has over 2X the gripping force of conventional carbon cages due to the 6 high shouldered carbon gripping fingers, tall retention tab at the top and thicker carbon. The Gorilla cage will fit on any standard cage mounts. Use a bottle that has a groove all the way around that is uniform and fits tightly into the hook at the top of the Gorilla Cage. Bottles with grooves that are not uniform around the entire circumference like the Polar Insulated bottles are not recommended for use with the XLAB Gorilla Cage, and in our experience these two bottles do not stay in place on rear carriers due to the lack of groove for the cages to grip. ## Features - Now Available in Matte Black - To ensure the best possible fit with the Gorilla Cage - Bottles with shorter groves that do not fit properly into the hook like the Camelback Podium ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B009141D6G | | Automotive Fit Type | Universal Fit | | Best Sellers Rank | #9,754 in Sporting Goods ( See Top 100 in Sporting Goods ) #30 in Bike Water Bottle Cages | | Brand Name | XLAB | | Capacity | 1 Fluid Ounces | | Color | Matte Black | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (157) | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00817195010703 | | Hand Orientation | both | | Included Components | Water Bottle Cages | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 20.3L x 10.8W x 8.9H centimeters | | Item Type Name | Cycling Water Bottle Holder | | Item Weight | 0.15 Pounds | | Manufacturer | XLAB | | Manufacturer Part Number | 1719 | | Material Type | Carbon | | Model Number | 1714 | | UPC | 817195010703 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** XLAB - **Colour:** Matte Black - **Material:** Carbon - **Product dimensions:** 20.3L x 10.8W x 8.9H centimeters - **Unit count:** 1 Count ## Images ![Xlab 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71IwwYQ+cnL.jpg) ![Xlab 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/711L8A3dnXL.jpg) ![Xlab 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UustOU1-L.jpg) ![Xlab 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31r3yZ+B3sL.jpg) ![Xlab 38-Gram Gorilla Carbon Cage - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71re2AZEflL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Frequently Bought Together - XLAB Gorilla Cage, Matte Black - XLAB Turbo Wing - XLAB Gorilla XT Carbon Water Bottle Cage for Triathlon and Road Bikes 14 pounds of Grip Force – Matte Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.nz/products/274347788-xlab-38-gram-gorilla-carbon-cage](https://www.desertcart.nz/products/274347788-xlab-38-gram-gorilla-carbon-cage) --- *Product available on Desertcart New Zealand* *Store origin: NZ* *Last updated: 2026-07-09*
