Anyone using fabric cageless bottles?

Getting a bit tired of taking cages on and off as we transition between training and racing season with practices etc and would like to carry 2 bottles for longer rides on the cross bike.
Fabric | waterbottle

Anyone using these? Was just wondering if the bosses would get in the waiting shouldering

Those look pretty slick and seem like they'd solve the problem. I can't imagine the attachments would hinder shouldering, they look pretty small.

I too get annoyed having to take bottle cages on/off during race season. I often just resort to jamming a bottle in my jersey pocket instead, and refilling it along the way somewhere.

Literally drinking from mine right now. They're a little finicky but once you figure out how to get them back on theres no problem. Definitely nice to be able to pre-ride with a drink then drop the bottle before you line up and have a clean frame for the race. They fit alright in cages so you can use them on a road bike too.
