On their website they claim that having this bottle is 110 seconds faster in an IM
cycling segment than having NO bottle at all mounted there.
I don't really do well using a straw to drink from plus I don't do long events and
rarely drink much during sprints of 12-20 miles.
I'm considering using this bottle but only to hold a flat kit possibly. If I understand
the rules correctly it would need to serve some purpose other than to be mounted as
a fairing.
So my questions..... will it fly rules-wise? And will it be worthwhile doing from an aero
savings standpoint? If it will really save nearly a second per mile I'd do it.
In doing the upcoming National Duathlon Long Course race in November I could
probably use those 26 seconds.

Find out what it is in life that you don't do well, then don't
do that thing.
