Wolf Tooth Component’s B-RAD Mounting Base provides an ingenious solution for trail riders, gravel seekers, and urban commuters seeking on-frame storage for water bottles, spare tubes, and accessories. The Mounting Base is the first step required before attaching Wolf Tooth’s separately available Accessory Mounts and Bottle Adapters. It’s available in either two, three, or four slot versions for customizing the storage potential of your frame. We think it’s a great idea, especially for smaller frames and full-suspension machines where clearance is limited, normally forcing you to adopt non-traditional methods of attaching a water bottle, like on the underside of your downtube. These other methods of bottle attachment often lead to awkward placement and aren’t exactly the most aesthetically pleasing. Realizing this, Wolf Tooth created the B-RAD system to shift the location of water bottles and storage straps out of the way, so they don’t come into contact with your piggyback shocks or tight frame clearances. The B-RAD Mounting Base attaches to virtually any modern bike, so long as it uses a standard 64-millimeter bottle cage braze-on. To find out which version is best for your specific bike and riding application, Wolf Tooth provides a printable 1:1 document that can be cut out and placed over your bike frame.

Designed to harmoniously attach to Wolf Tooth’s B-RAD Mounting Base, the B-RAD Double Bottle Cage Adapter allows you to carry two water bottles in a side-by-side fashion, so you can stay hydrated on longer hauls and trail rides. As a nifty alternative, you can use the B-RAD Double Bottle Cage Adapter to attach one water bottle alongside a Mini Strap and Accessory Mount (sold separately) for greater storage of tools and tubes in remote riding locales. To install, you’ll need to purchase a separately available B-Rad Mounting Base (most likely the B-RAD 3 or 4 Base), which attaches directly to standard 64 millimeter bottle cage braze-ons located on your bike’s downtube or fork leg. The Double Bottle Cage Adapter is comprised of 6061-T6 aluminum brackets and stainless steel hardware.

Wolf Tooth’s Bottle Relocation and Accessory Device (B-RAD) is an ingenious system that optimizes storage of your trail bike with limited clearance, due to frame tolerances and shock locations. Also, it’s a great addition to your gravel bike and daily commuter, as it holds spare tubes, extra bottles, and must-have items in a cleanly situated fashion. Designed to harmoniously integrate with this aftermarket mounting system, the Wolf Tooth Components B-RAD Accessory Strap Mount carries virtually any riding accessory measuring 50 to 80 millimeters in diameter. It attaches directly to Wolf Tooth’s B-RAD mounting base (sold separately) with the help of an aluminum mounting bracket and stainless steel hardware. The Toughtek Grip strap is burly enough to withstand serious trail thrashings and countless miles of riding, complete with a secure hook-and-loop fastener that stays put while you’re rallying over rugged stretches of trail and bumpy gravel roads. You’ll find it especially useful for carrying spare tubes, extra layers, food items, or multi-tools when you’re far from the help of civilization or simply commuting to work and desire a bit of extra storage.
