Features and Benefits

  • “Use standard water bottle mounted horizontally on the aerobars for most aero additional hydration”... states leading Engineering led bicycle manufacturer.
  • Specially designed by XLAB to be light and aerodynamic.
  • Perfect with XLAB AQUA-SHOT bottle for Sprint Tris or 20km TT’s or even Ironman races.
  • Add XLAB AERO TT bottle and cage for Olympic Tris or 40km TT’s.
  • Taking a drink from an XLAB AQUA-SHOT once every 15 minutes is faster than the drag (as much as 50 grams) from a 3/8 dia (10 mm.) straw for the whole bike split. The drag from a front "aero" bottle is considerably more as it has nearly 3x the frontal area.
  • Use on 70.3 or Ironman races to eliminate huge drag from front vertical bottles and straws.
