hey guy i bought a bike a few days ago and it didnt come with a water bottle hodler so i bought 1. Then i tryed putting it on and idk how to put it on. It came with some screws and some metal straps. I found a picture that looks similar to my bike exept its different brand and other stuff.

The bike that I have is Exterior Mountain bike. Dual Suspension and 26". Can anyone help me on how to get this waterbottle holder on. Because I dont want to drill holes if i have to and then its ruined.

Whatever you do don't drill >.>

Do the bands have holes in them? Maybe you put the band around the bike pole, and put a bolt through the two holes, also securing the water bottle holder.
