Any idea who is possibly making this in the future?
I ask Timbo reed on instagram but he said it was a pro-type and could not share the company

Speedfil? X-lab? Bontrager?

No idea, but I would love to be able to get my speedbox painted to match my bike. Would be a nice addition, but they will not do that, or send paint so you can do it.

This is awesome! Exactly what I was looking to use for liquid shot/water mix! My EFS liquid shots won't fit on the current speedbox toptube.

Had that problem with the liquid shot also, so I just bought a GU Gel Flask and put it in there and it appears to be working fine for the moment.

As long as we're wishing for things... I would love to get one of these bontrager disks. I have no idea why they don't sell them.

How on earth did you get a GU Gel flask into the SC's top tube bento?

It's not a bontrager disc. Hence why they don't sell them.

I will try to take a pic when I get home. But I just slid it in, with the nozzle closed, so it wouldn't leak.

As mentioned it's a super 9. De stickered zipp decals, tfr Pie type of decal.
I got one made up from Brian from carbonwheedecals.com . Cost me 70 which is a bit BUT they didn't have the file for it so had to make it up. I imagine since the have it on file it will be cheaper now.

I am slow with remembering to take pics sometimes, I usually push the front down a little more, but it has worked well so far. :-p

I got one of these and it fits perfectly on the top tube. 16 Oz/500ml of gel mix and it'll get me to special needs!

I used this Giant aero bottle on the top tube recently and it fits nicely on the SC without the cage, looks quite slick actually.
I screwed it straight through the bottle into the TT, and cut out the top with a stanley knife.
I'll post a pic if I get a chance
