After a few short months of Texas "not-so-hot weather," I decided I need more than what one water bottle can carry and rediscovered now awkward a hydration pack is. 2 liters in a Osprey Raptor 10 is quite uncomfortable and I'd like to put another water bottle on my bike.
My medium Karate Monkey has bolts to fit a bottle cage on top of the down tube and under it. I refuse to use the underside cage as I am certain that is going to fall off after it gets splattered with dog shi!t. I'd like to clamp a smaller bottle onto the seat tube bit the small handful of strap-on bottle mounts (SKS, Topeak, Two fish, etc) have me wondering if any of then are worthwhile. Recommendations?
When it gets REALLY hot I will deal with the backpack, but for those days when it's too hot for one 24 oz bottle but not hot enough for a backpack, I'd like to have the option for a second bottle.
