Bottle Cage - 02

BOTTLE CAGE:
Weyless - water bottle cage - down tube mount - 74 mm aluminum - Black anodized finish with White vinyl slip pad - Black plastic spacers - factory "drilled" stainless steel bottle cage clamps - stainless steel nuts and bolts - grouped model W-BC ... [A period appropriate accessory that made its public debut in 1976 as yet another innovation from the fertile mind of Bill Shook who was at the time working as the in-house design engineer for Weyless Industries, Inc. That aspect which allowed this particular bottle cage to be granted patent protection status by the United States Patent and Trademark Office would be the fact that it is comprised of a single piece of resilient wire bent to form, the otherwise open ends of which are joined by vinyl "weld free" connection which also serves as a less abrasive protective surface for gripping a water bottle. It should be noted that any Graftek G-1, whether it was originally sold new as a frameset only or as a "complete" bike, would not have typically included a water bottle or cage on the presumption that a new owner would add one later if their circumstance warranted.]
