MSR fuel bottle holder

I saw somewhere a bracket that mounts to the rear of a pannier. There were multiple accessories that could be purchased to be mounted. One was a fuel bottle holder. Anyone have info on where to purchase?

I have the Touratech double bottle holder bolted to my HT panniers. $38 and came with four Arno straps to strap the bottles on. I didn't think that was too much money and you can strap other stuff to it too. I put a can of chain lube on one side, the MSR bottle on the other. If I don't need the chain lube or the campstove fuel, I strap down two 22oz bottles of Deschutes or Elysian.

$5 at a bicycle shop will net you a bottle holder that works well. A toe strap around the whole shebang fastened separately to the base will help keep 'em in. A bit KLRish, but really. $40? Puh-leeze. Touratech was separated at birth from it's progenitor, Gucci, I think.

If you are mounting two bottles and want the Touratech mount, get two of the single mounts.
If you get the double mount, you will have a hard time getting your key in the stock BMW panniers.
Here is what I did.
From Fuel Bottles

Two bottle holders ($10 each) from REI and stainless steel hardware from Home Depot.
Total cost < $29.
Take one of your fuel bottles with you to do a test fit.
My Soto bottles are not the same diameter as yours.

Good luck.

That's a nice setup. Mount the bungs and they become quick detach.

Just buy the double holder and cut it apart. You'll have two singles for less money.

If you want to be really cheap some hose clamps riveted or bolted to the panniers. You'll need a flat head to put them on or take them off though

The bungs/buttons are sprung loaded so making it less likely the racks will come loose, the setup also makes it so that if your not going to use them on a day to day basis, the racks can be removed and stored.
Unlike other suggestions, the bottle racks don`t have to be permanently in place, so won`t get damaged with knocks & bumps.
If your worried about them falling off while your off road, do what everyone else does with a standard bottle rack and use some shock cord or a rubber band to hold them down in the locked position
using 1 or 2 pairs of racks + 1 set of bungs/buttons, and you can interchange various types of bottles (water fuel etc) on the fly, depending upon your needs for the trip your doing, & should you mount them in pairs, and they foul the case lock, its only a split second to pull 1 off, undo the case lock, and slide the bottle back on place

Well, I don't have one to sell, but here's my 12 oz'er I mounted to the rear of my aux fuel tank. I used a KTM kickstand rubber to loop over the top to keep it from bouncing out. And I lined the holder with a layer of velcro to keep it from rattling around and wearing off the paint.

I take the KLR comment as a compliment..hehe. The cheaper solution water bottle holder does work well I can attest, the ones I bought came with crappy rubber straps that were bound to fail so just cut them off and replaced with more secure screw bands. This setup made it in and out of some knarly whoops and sandy riding tip-overs in Baja...no problemo. Can also mount them on the panniers just fine.

Wolfman Fuel Bottle Holster and Mount Kit

I just got and mounted this setup today. It looks like it's going to work out great. Holds 1 L fuel bottle easy. Solid/secure/durable.
