Anyway, if the DT cage is the one you`re in and out of, I wonder if you`d be a little less cramped by turning the frame bag "backwards". Not sure it would be beter, but seeing your bike in the picture makes me wonder how I could manage one of those bags on my even smaller frame and that`s what keeps popping into my mind.
The bag can go backwards, but it would actually be worse that way. Just look at the bottle in the picture and move it mentally onto the ST. You'll see that there's less room above the ST bottle than above DT.
If I didn't have the battery on the downtube, I could move the ST cage a couple of inches higher and the DT cage a couple of inches lower, this way both bottles would be in the clear. (Not sure how exactly I'd go about doing that, cage mounting holes on the seat tube are very low, I'd need some kind of cage extension, I guess...)
