Or velcro it to the front of the front triangle of your frame, via the toptube...you will have to pull your bottle out of only one side though.
pardon the slow response...I was playing games for the past few hours
That makes sense ... I think you put up pictures of this once before.
While both your suggestion would work from a fit/functional perspective ... what has your experience been from a noise/damage perspective?
Does the lock rattle much as you ride (only being held onto the frame by the friction of the velcro strap - as opposed to a plastic mount)? Does the lock eventually wear the paint off the frame in the spot it's touching?
