That’s neat, but why stop at four!? There’s scope for a popup bar.

I got a gimbaled drink holder for my mother’s Rollator. You could put two of them on the bar for a total of six.

As this is my bike–I thought I’d provide some info–the frame is a 1950 Schwinn straightbar–and there is only enough room for four 12 ouncers–the leather holder on the seat tube actually hold a bottle of my latest preferance–the tank is filled with the official swill of the slow bike movement–Peebers.
