I currently have two below saddle mounted water bottle cages on an x lab super wing, I also have a speedfill that is frame mounted with a straw tube. I am looking to get a new hydration set up as my water bottles tend to fall out at higher speeds and the frame mounted speedfill is getting old.
What is the best hydration set up?
Please help!! At the risk of sounding like a smartass, Shiv integrated bladder. I've tried just about everything else. Shiv bladder, plus a bottle cage for an extra bottle, which I then pour into the bladder when it's empty, and get another bottle if I need to. (Decent bike handling skills are needed....) For other bikes, bottle or aerodrink between handlebars.
I've never ever had water bottles fall out. Bend the cages a little so they hold the bottles a little tighter. Or get new cages.
I've never used xlab type behind-saddle hydration. Bottles tend to fall out of those a little too easily.
