I don't need one but sure do want one, therefore I will have one. Probably the seat post model. :beer:

And here I thought this thread was going to be about Religion, or Freedom of Speech, or Being Nice and Respecting Others on the Forum.

And it turns out to be about something even more important - Bicycles + :beer:

Damn cabin fever and getting ornery. I'm putting together something for spring and this I think is a very important component. Hell I was ecstatic when I came across it. :beer: I can't wait for the other important parts I might find that are essential to the build. :beer:

Nice to see a retro fit bottle opener. I have a Vicious Cycles mountain bike with a Paragon dropout that has a bottle opener built in. I also have a Vicious Cycles cross bike with a bottle opener welded to the chain stay. Some frame builders have the foresight for this sort of thing.

Cheers!

Mike Ahrens is a friend and former colleague of mine (I even hired him once). Good, solid mechanical engineer. And beer lover.

Those are great. They should be standard for all CX bikes.

It's a novel idea, but be honest. Would you put that on your bike if you got it for Christmas?

I'd put it in the seat bag, if nothing else. Jeff N.

It is just what I need. My fargo has 6 water bottle mounts but carrying an opener for the 6 pack has always been a hassle.
