SnapFlask is a new bicycle water bottle holder accessory, developed by Torq Athletic Gear, that makes it easier than ever for cyclists to secure and access their water bottles. This system allows cyclists to permanently do away with ungainly frame-mounter water bottle cages that can only be used with bottles of a specific shape and size. The SnapFlask can be used with any kind of bottle.
The accessory is essentially a strap that uses a pair of magnets that are mounted on bottle cage bosses using steel bolts. The magnets secure a steel plate that is attached to the bottle, keeping it securely in place.
This magnetic water bottle holder gives cyclists flexibility in that they don't have to stick to a particular brand of water bottle to get their hydration on.
