Cannibal XC Bio-based

Cannibal XC Bio-Based is Elite’s bio-based plastic bottle cage derived from castor beans, engineered to give you fast side access to your bottle.

The open design allows quick retrieval from either side even on compact frames or tight main triangles—road, gravel or MTB—combining real-world functionality with eco-design principles.

Elite’s bottle cage made with plant-based bio-plastic derived from castor oil.

Design
IMMEDIATE ACCESS FROM EITHER SIDE
Cannibal XC Bio-Based is designed to provide immediate side access to your bottle even when frame space is tight or occupied by bikepacking bags. The wide lateral opening frees your hand movement so grabbing and replacing the bottle stays easy at speed.

A central rubber-reinforced section adds elasticity to the structure for precise fit across different bottle shapes and better vibration absorption—resulting in stable, secure retention on tarmac and rough terrain alike.
Fiberglass
BUILT TO LAST
The body of Cannibal XC Bio-Based is fiberglass-reinforced to balance low weight with structural stiffness.

Fiberglass lets the cage resist impacts, vibration and continuous stresses, keeping bottles secure on long gravel rides, technical trail sections and mixed-surface adventures.
