Here is my review:
Seat post mounted on the mtb. Approx 20 rides, 10 on gravel, 10 at Mercer

1 or two times at Mercer, the bottle ejected in a root section. Today. ejected with in a few min of riding the singletrack. Ejected again a few min later. Ejected again shortly after that and spilled water on me. Turns out the mount ripped off the bottle:

Left a whole where the mount back was.

Dropped my bottle for the first time today. Rooty dh pedaling and I thought a branch kicked up and hit my leg. Turns out it was my bottle. Considering I've used this system at Killington creek and thunder and out in Utah, I'm surprised the bottle dropped today. I'm using the same frame studs for about a year now, they are on their third bike and they definitely feel less clicky when I snap my bottle in now vs day 1. Have new ones to try since my bottles each came with two sets. Going to see if it's the bottle or the studs that are worn.
