Another dumb cup-holder for your bike.

I say dumb because, when I built my first ever sweet fixie conversion, I bought one of these and mounted an old bottle cage on my handlebars, trimming the high top off it and filing it smooth. My vision was that it would afford me the effortless grace of swinging by my local Stoke Newington barista, collecting my capp and riding back home to slave over my PowerBook G4.
The reality was rather different, as I lived in a city, and city streets are shit. My sweet fixie conversion was running 23c tyres pumped up to about 100psi. I got about 200 yards before my entire front wheel was soaked in frothy coffee.
It's a genuinely shit idea, and I wish people would stop trying to come up with 'solutions' for this fwp.
Ride to shop, drink coffee at or near shop. Ride away.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
