"Gravel bikes have no suspension. Water Bottle can (and do) bounce out of their cage when rough terrain is encountered. Lost bottles interrupt rides and are often not noticed, until you need water - and then they are gone - lost somewhere in miles behind. This can be consequential when Bike-packing in the mountain west, where water sources are typically scarce. I'd been use Voile Straps, but while they work they are cumbersome - require stopping in order to pull out a bottle, and require constant attention while in camp - where they can get lost vs. Band Joes which stay connect to the Bottle-Cage - simply elegant." - Jim S.
