Product Details

Add Icon

This Zee Cage II was designed with an integrated EMT Cage Mount MTB Tool that has all of the trailside necessities required to get you out of a jam on your ride. For the cage itself, you'll find it to be respectably lightweight, and to have incredible holding power for when the trails get rough. For easy bottle access, we also gave it a unique side-loading design that allows you take pulls from the right or left-hand side depending on placement.

  • SWAT™ design allows for storage and tool integration.

  • Side-loading design allows for secure bottle retention with easy in-and-out accessibility for frames with a compact bottle mounting area.

  • Includes EMT Cage Mount MTB Tool with 3, 4, 5, 6, 8mm, T25 Torx, and #1 flathead screwdriver.

  • Right-hand loading on the down tube—left-hand loading on the seat tube.

  • Sleek, minimalist design with razor-sharp graphics.

SWAT multi-tool under bottle cage

I have used this tool for years, on multiple bikes and it stays put through the roughest stuff. However, my new headset tool on Enduro is even better (farther from grit and grime), pops out spring loaded. I use it far more often because it is so easy, but only some bikes will have that option and it does have less components than this tool. Both are winners!

Great combo

I've used the zee cages for years and love them. This one came on my stumpy, and having the tool attached is super handy. It's also one less thing I have to have to swap between bikes. The tool seems to be securely mounted; I've never had concerns about it falling out while riding.

Really nice design, but a tool is dropped and there's no replacement option.

The bottle case is well-designed, and I could pick a water bottle smoothly. The tools attached to the case are very convenient, and I loved it. However, one day, I noticed the tool part disappeared midway through a long ride. I am unsure why it was off because I confirmed the screw was tightened before heading out. Since I did not have a backup tool, it was problematic. Also, I cannot find a replacement tool part. I recommend having extra caution with the screw part and/or putting a backup tool if it is a long ride.

Great cage and conveniently stored minimalist tool

The Z cage is the best on the market for the money in my experience. Holds the bottle very securely and sideloading allows you to fit a full size bottle in a tighter front triangle (like my Ripmo AF). The tool is easy to pull in and out and has the basic bits you need for the most common things you need to tighten and adjust trailside.

Most useful place to stash a mini tool.

For minimalist riding, you have this cage with your mini tool , a tubeless Stan’s plug and a CO2 and you can solve about anything to get you back to the car. It doesn’t have a chain breaker but to add that takes more weight and size. That’s about all you loose. I have them on all my mtb, stumpjumper, epic evo, kids mtb, etc.

The Complete Package

Excellent design, although it is taking me a bit of time to get used to this design ie placing my bottle in from the right hand side compared to placing my bottle in from the top. My water bottle fits in really secure. The tool clips in secure at the bottom of the cage by a clip which seems robust. The tool is also of robust design and has all the tools required.

Tool opening should be on the right

While it's great to have a SWAT tool on the bike, this option is significantly worse than the head tube option. The tool opening is quite difficult to open, and while this is a right sided cage, the tool holder only opens on the left side. Also the tool is only one sided, so you have to unfold all of the pieces to get to the second set of tools. The head tube tool is way easier to get to (as it's always right in front of you), comes out of the holder easily, and is two sided.

Strong and reliable

Such a strong and reliable bottle cage for MTB riding! Been going down some technical terrains with drops, rocks and jumps and my bottle still remains in place. The tool cage is also a plus. Depending on if you wear gloves or not, removing the tool can be cumbersome but has the necessary bits for any emergency bolt checks. Make sure you secure the tool back in place as I have lost one due to my mistake of rushing and not making sure it was locked in. Spend the money and get this bottle cage rather than the cheap one via Amazon.

Bottle cage is great. Holds your bottle really well even on gnarly stuff.

A clever little gadget which does precisely what it promises

At last I'm free of my Camelbak for the majority of my trail riding. With this cage (and a Fidlock for under the down tube), I can carry plenty of water and a multitool, with the rest in my shorts. I feel faster and definitely better balanced when climbing, jumping, dropping, etc. I'll likely add another Zee Cage to my hardtail too. Worth every penny!

Better than I thought!

I bought an eBike and found that a regular water bottle cage does not work due to the larger size of the middle of the bike due to the battery. But a ""side"" bottle cage works great!!! At first I thought the price was pretty steep but it's made very well, not cheap, and works out great! Looks great too!

Never Ride Without It

This cage came with my Stumpjumper hardtail when I bought it a few years back. It's come in handy so many times and the greatest part is that you never have to remember to bring it along because it lives on the bike. It's helped after crashes during races and while out with friends on fun rides. It's a necessity at this point and genius design. Never had an issue with it.
