If the cup is HOT and FULL... it's going on your hand over the first good bump.

In order not to swing out the coffee when you riding the bike, u'd better put the coffee in the middle of the handle instead of at the end...

THATS REALLY HEALTHY MAKES A LOT OF SENSE RIDING A BIKE AND DRINKING COFFEE, LIKE I SEE PEOPLE AT THE GYM DRINKING COFFEE AS THEY WORK OUT.

SOMA's Morning Rush did this first, and better:

It uses the same mounting as Cateye's bicycle lights.

yo yall be fools. built my own coffee cup holder DIY styles back in the day, use it all the time. people cycle and drink coffee, especially iced coffee, so keep your pants on.
sam bucca   08.05.09
it's a poor decision to put the cup on the end of the handlebar since that is the spot with the most movement... attaching the cup closer to the stem like soma's design makes much more sense. but i am always a fan of cycling being cooler than driving!

you're all idiots.. arguing about health, and whether it's useful. Tons of people drink all kinds of beverages while riding. I have a homemade one similar to this.
atoll   08.05.09
I'd be down with purchasing it if it went into production. I would be worried about it getting stolen off my bike quickly. Can't really tell if it has something which more permanently installs it, to deter from that.

This has been all over the web, which is kind of funny. Everyone seemed to think it was a great idea when announced, but now is backtracking. High speeds and hot beverages don't mix regardless of the cup holder.

Even this "nearly" universal cup holder has it's limits.
