Abstract A clamp-on water bottle holder for bicycles will be made of various metals and plastics to retro-fit those bicycles which don't have factory installed braze-on bosses. They will come in many model types and will also fit current bicycles which do have factory installed braze-ons. All clamp-on models will fit either type of bicycle. The variety of clamping devices will be determined by the composition of the particular clamp-on model and economics. The clamp-on bosses will be modular and adjustable to different bicycle frame tubing sizes. Some models of clamp-on bosses will hold more than one water bottle holder per set of bosses. Accessories will directly attach to factory installed braze-on bosses allowing for more than one holder.

Claim 1
Independent Claim
129 words
A two piece clamp for attaching at least one water bottle holder to the tubular frame of a bicycle comprising: first and second members complimentally configured to be joined together at interface surfaces on each member, each member having an arcuate surface defining a contiguous inner arcuate surface, when mounted together, adapted to surround and clampingly receive a tubular member of a bicycle frame, one of said members including at least one flattened outer surface adapted for receiving a water bottle holder, said contiguous surface being discontinuous over a portion opposite said outer flattened surface, said interface surfaces being located adjacent said flattened outer surface and being disposed at an acute angle with respect to said flattened outer surface, and means for securing said first and second members together.
