30oz. MSR in water bottle cage
- Thread starter Albula vulpes
- Start date
Get the Primus fuel bottle instead if you're planning on using it as a tank, the MSR caps are a pain. I use a 1L one in a water bottle cage with a nylon strap with clip holding it safe in my BMX.
Wasn't planning on using it as a tank. Using it as a refill resivoir to fill the standard tank on the engine. If you look at them, they all look to be the same circumference, just taller than one another. Taller would work, but bigger circumference wouldn't fit in my water bottle cage. Anyone know if a 30 oz. MSR will fit in a standard water bottle cage? Thanks

be sure to mount it well
Yeah they'll fit a bottle cage, I have a couple I use for refilling tanks. The MSR's are good for filling tanks because they have small top openings compared to the Primus ones, which are easier to fill because of the larger opening and the better cap. The MSR ones are good for filling tanks with regular filler caps or into a Primus bottle but not the other way around, and the caps are a pain.
Don't mean to hijack your thread, but I just wanted to mention...
For refilling, I've been using the same 20oz soda bottle (mountain dew, I think) for at least the last 3 years. I wasn't sure if the plastic was gas-resistant, but it most certainly is. The only part that wasn't was the seal inside the cap. I was going to glue in a piece of cork, but it wasn't necessary - cap seals fine without it.
You probably want something nicer than a pop bottle, but I thought I would mention my experience for other cheap bass-turds like me.

AV,
I have (2) 30's & (4) 20's that I keep around but haven't used in awhile. I used to commute on the motorized bicycles but haven't been. They fit fine. I like to use two 8" velcro straps to secure the bottle in the cage by running the strap through the circular cap and around 2 points on the cage. Don't need to have one of these little bombs flying off my bike at ludicrous speed...lol
