Aerodynamically Invisible

Proven aerodynamically invisible by 5x WORLD CHAMPION Craig Alexander & Mat Steinmetz at the Velodrome, June 2013.

  • Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) airflow optimized and velodrome aero testing approved.
  • Bottle body design
    • Contoured design to fit your arm shape.
    • Small frontal area that allows a clean airflow around the bottle.
    • Kamm tail. Reduces drag by 50%
    • Airflow straighteners designed into the bottle to gather airflow for a clean, straight exit air flow.
    • Flush lids reduce drag.
  • Spacers - allows you to adjust the bottle to the height of your arms resulting in zero crosswind drag.
  • Dolphin tail designed straw retainer - allows you to fold the straw flat. Directs air over the straw. Saves up to 100 grams of straw drag.
  • Computer mounted in front of the bottle, not on top which increases aero drag.

Easy Computer Viewing

Why mount a computer behind your line of sight? The TORPEDO SYSTEM is designed to have the computer mounted in front of the bottle. Look down with your eyes and not your head!

Easier to Handle in Winds

The TORPEDO SYSTEM was designed to mount further back allowing easier steering for the rider

  • Weight is moved back off aerobar extensions. Up to 4 inches (100 mm) of adjustment.

Xlab Gorilla Cage

Helps Prevent bottles launching from rear carriers

Features and Benefits

The Gorilla helps prevent bottles ejecting from cages on bumpy roads, mountain bikes and saddle-mounted water bottle carriers. The cage has over 2X the gripping force of conventional carbon cages due to the 6 high shouldered carbon gripping fingers, tall retention tab at the top and thicker carbon. The Gorilla cage will fit on any standard cage mounts.

  • Tall Gripping sides & Stiff top lip
  • Flared entry for fast insertion
  • Thick shelf for large bottles

Warning

To ensure the best possible fit with the Gorilla Cage, use a bottle that has a groove all the way around that is uniform and fits tightly into the hook at the top of the Gorilla Cage.
Bottles with shorter groves that do not fit properly into the hook like the Camelback Podium, and bottles with grooves that are not uniform around the entire circumference like the Polar Insulated bottles are not recommended for use with the XLAB Gorilla Cage, and in our experience these two bottles do not stay in place on rear carriers due to the lack of groove for the cages to grip.
