I've done away with all the cages on my bikes. I prefer to keep a bottle in a front basket or a pouch, just my two cents. I was keeping a 20 oz kleen Kanteen in a metal bottle cage and it eventually broke it (the cage). Pouches and baskets let me use whatever size drink I want, and still are accessible without stopping.

I know what you mean... still on a quest for that perfect bottle...

I use a Hydro Flask and it fits well and keeps coffee hot for a long time. The downside is the price so if you belong to REI you can find them on sale every now and then or use the occasional 20% coupons they send out.

Selection is constantly changing.  Not updated since 2013, so most may not be available.  http://nordicgroup.us/bikecoff/

I've bike thousands of miles with a classic Contigo 16 oz insulated travel mug in my water cage. Never leaked, even after dropping it multiple times and running it over a few times. Just be sure to get the unpainted ones - they'll still scratch a bit from the cage, but it's not terrible.
