Very poor design..Apr 14, 2011
By Bob Weaver This might be the most annoying accessory I've tried to add to my bike since 1993. Should mount just fine on the middle hole, but it is nearly impossible to get the holes to line up and get the screw started. I think if your mounting location fits within the smallest setting it might be a lot easier since it comes from the factory pre-bent all nice. But once you flatten then [try to] re-bend the metal band similar to the factory bends, it's over. I was pretty sure I had it a couple times, but after 30 minutes I was done. I was about to throw my entire bike out the garage window.
Maybe it's me, but I'd be surprised.. I've never had this much trouble with anything (bike-related or not) in my life. If it's what you need, good luck. I hope you have a better time with it than I. Otherwise I'd look at one of their other styles (the BH100M perhaps), it is a way better design.
P.S. I don't know where the poor quality remarks are coming from.. The unit is actually made of very good quality materials and seems like it would be pretty durable.

Clever and usefulMay 14, 2009
By Thomas L. Reingold I just put two of these on my bike. I am satisfied beyond expectations. It can attach to any round-profile object such as a frame tube or handlebar. Diameter can be 22 to 35 millimeters. I put one on my seat tube and one on my handlebars. They hold extremely firmly and seem very likely to cause few or no scratches.

Flexible & CheapMay 24, 2011
By The Squirrel This is an excellent solution for those trying to mount a water bottle on a non-standard frame and/or unusual location. The unit was attached to a Schwinn S-25 which has a non-standard, non-cylindrical tube frame and lacks bottle cage braze-ons. The S-25 is dual suspension and thus the body doesn't accommodate much between the top and down tubes in addition to the large tubing.
The unit was generally very easy to attach. The install took less than 5 minutes for the initial BH-95X unit itself and another 5 to bend the metal base-plate of the unit and angle it with the bottle cage properly. The plastic and metal base-plate of the Minoura is very solid and able to sustain the bending abuse easily. I suggest that installers take a moment to review the brief instructions and examine the Minoura unit closely - it may save you a lot of unnecessary stress later. The BH-95X packaging includes a soft clear plastic shim *inside* along with instructions - the shim is easy to miss and throw away.
The BH-95X now holds a Topeak Modula water bottle cage vertically and angled outwards (from the seatpost).

Great productJan 28, 2011
By Mary Marsh
"happy mom"
I have used this in 3 endurance races where refilling a bottle is not possible, and it did not move in 250 miles of racing. I mounted it on my seatpost.
Works great.
Use a thin rubber shim or if will scratch your seatpost.

Product was installed on 32mm OD steel tube of bike frame with minor modification (used nylon webbing against tube instead of plastic shim). No problems after 1 month.
