I came up with this project one day using only what I already had in my house (minus mount). The can was perfect because it fit my coffee tumbler, beer bottle, water bottle, and coke cans. I even thought about making a mount rigged with something I found around the house, but opted for a “real” mount to give it a more clean look. This is a fun project that may look long because I explained everything in detail, but it really only takes a few minutes and with an awesome end result!
way it is then you are ready to move on to the next step.
it is well covered and don’t forget to do the inside too! Let dry.
doing it on the seam of the can because it is the weakest point.
run the drill through again to widen the hole slowly. Then you are good to attach the mount to the can.
4) Finishing touches: slide in your koozie for some extra insulation and mount it onto your bike.

HI! I am excited to try this project, but am curious how the screws used to attach the mount to the can don’t interfere with the inside of the can? Or is the koozie used as a buffer, with the use of short screws?
what is the mount called?
I think that’s the one this post uses.
I ended up finding a “Velo Orange Handlebar Cage Bracket” which also should work for most people.
I used a pipe mount from the hardware store for mine. And decorated the outside. Oh and drilled a whole in the bottom. For draining.
