LOL I'll take functionality over looks any day but not sure where you get slow from? It's tucked between your arms and by my point at an angle for a start. I don't use the computer mount and the tube is on a hinge so you can bend it down so it doesn't see the wind.I obviously don’t know about “slow” but seem to recall the speed fil product tested slow and this has a similar shape.
As to looks, I will take functionality and looks over just functionality (I’m not saying this product has both, but the VT product definitely does not!).
My list of front hydration has always been (in no particular order)
(1) looks good/sleek/decent color scheme
(2) at least looks aero if it tested well
(3) functional for set up-for drinking, refilling etc
(4) easily cleaned
(5) doesn’t leak-I mean not even a drop
(6) good set up on aerobars/ easily removed, allows for computer set up, stable, no rattling, etc
If it can’t do all of the above, it’s standard BTA bottle for me. I have yet to find a front hydration that ticks all these boxes. Which is why I’m still using a standard bottle in a standard cage.
