I have a Raleigh Tora dual suspension bike, and it works great for my purposes, but I guess because of the design it doesn't have any screws to attach drink bottle cages or really anywhere much to put them. I was wondering if they make a bottle holder that attaches with straps or something instead of screws ?
I realise it's only a "budget" model, but I'd still like to be able to get out and about with it.. (currently I haven't even been out of town with it!)

My LBS has single and double bottle holders that go on the seatpost and the other option is to get an hydration pack. the latter gives you more fluid and space for tools and lunch.

Excellent, thanks! The hydration pack sounds good as I'd probably be carring a backpack anyway for that purpose.. (tools/lunch)

If you want a cheap, good hydration pack, Costco (I'm not sure if it's stocked at every location) has the High Sierra packs with a 70oz bladder, for only $20. Lots of pockets, straps, etc, and a good body- cooling suspension system. Hooked a friend up with one and today was its maiden voyage. He loved it. I've used the Mule for several years, but there are lots of good ones out there.
