Ryder Bottle Cage Side Entry Dual II
What Is It
The Ryder Side Entry Dual II is a side-loading bicycle bottle cage designed to make bottle access easier on bikes with limited frame clearance.

- full-suspension MTB frames
- small frame sizes
- gravel bikes with frame bags
- compact commuter setups
The “Dual” design allows installation for either left or right side bottle access, depending on mounting orientation.
Key Features
- Side-entry loading design for tight frame spaces
- Reversible mounting for left or right-side access
- Lightweight composite construction
- Secure bottle retention over rough terrain
- Suitable for MTB, gravel, road, and commuter bikes
- Easy bottle access while riding
- Compatible with standard cycling bottles
