I will be using the bonty speed bottle for half’s this year for my nutrition, I know test have shown that putting the bottle on the down tube is faster but with an aero shaped bottle does it matter wear it is to be better or worse. I have a QR so I have 2 places to mount it. Seems like alot of the ToC boys have it on the seat tube but most dont have a choice.
I’ve seen conflicting reports (down-tube faster vs. seat-tube faster), but the vast majority of the time I’ve seen people quoted (Cobb among others) that a bottle on the seat-tube is faster. I’m pretty sure those were done with round bottles though - not sure how the aero shape of the Bonty would change it.
anybody else? It would be on a QR Seduza.
I’m wondering the same thing with a TTX.
Seat tube is faster on the TTX
.
Thanks Lavery! I appreciate the help.
No problem.
Buried in here is some info on the TTX with speed bottle from Mr. Cobb.
