ROCKO CARBON: designing a Carbon Fiber Bottle Cage
Water Bottle Holder with Minimalist Design
Rocko Carbon is the Elite’s Ultra-Lightweight Carbon Bottle Cage.
The Rocko Carbon is the latest in Elite‘s line of successful designs: an extremely lightweight and unique reinforced injected carbon fiber bottle cage. Its decisive geometries and clean lines, as always, address practical needs by transforming them into aesthetic possibilities. The top opening has been specifically designed to allow for sideways bottle insertion. Furthermore, varied sections throughout the design reduce weight where it’s not needed and reinforce critical points. The final result is a distinctly aggressive yet minimalist design, making it ideal for assembly on a wide range of bike models. It’s a prime example of how the deep knowledge of sport design and technology often serves as a significant stimulus for new designs.
Rocko Carbon is the water bottle holder reinforced in carbon fiber by injection, very light and resistant. The ideal tool to have security and maximum management of the bottle in the face of an exceptional hold, especially in mountain biking and in extreme conditions of training and competition, such as on uneven descents and
freeride. Delineo design has designed this particularly resistant and practical bottle cage, Rocko Carbon has in the lateral insertion its strong point and its distinctive connotation. This characteristic makes it compatible with all frames and especially with bicycles equipped with frames with inclined or small tubes.
A product with a strong and versatile aesthetic appeal that enhances its technological innovations.
