Default Crushed Red Bull can

Check out the pic of the red bull can on my bike. It doesn't look smooth like the rest of you all's. What am I doing wrong? If I don't tighten it tight, I'm affraid that it might fall off.

bro...you are too funny. You've got to cut it. Cut the top and the bottom and then slit it in the middle(from top to bottom). Then you can attach it WITHOUT it being crushed lol.

There's a red bull can because it's a certain mod people do. They attach EMPTY energy drink cans, beer cans, soda cans, etc to their bikes. Kind of a personalized look I suppose.

Now I've cut a hole in the bottom, that's how I slide it on. But your saying literally cut off the top and bottom? How??? I tried that with the first few cans and it turned out worse. And to answer the question as to why have a red bull can on your bike? It's different, and a good conversation starter.

use a sharp knife and cut the top and bottom off like how you would cut a sausage. then when all you have is a tube, use a scissor and cut the other way and it can wrap around the reservoir. If you want, cut off any extrascuz it'll overlap

Yes, sir. I'm going to try to make it really easy and simple for ya. Measure how much you need to cut by holding the can next to where you are going to put it on. Now hold the the can straight up. The part where you would drink from should be facing the sky. Cut the top off. Cut the bottom off. It's better to cut too little than too much. You can cut it with scissors, or some people used a saw. IMO scissors are better because they don't dent the can. Now cut the middle from top to bottom in the back. Then wrap it around the reservoir and it may overlap, so you may have to cut it some more and adjust accordingly. Then tighten it and there ya go. Woohoo!

that doesn't look right though. What if somebody's thirsty for some red bull? You're going to have to replace it!
