Water bottles?

My longest typical ride, 7.5 miles, takes me about half an hour with urban traffic and stop lights.
I can make it for half an hour without a water bottle.

My dream frame would have no holes nor braze-ons, and 59cm Bianchi Pista geometry (75 degree head and seat tubes, sloping top tube, high bottom bracket shell, and a fork with a 28mm rake).

If I ever get the frame described above, I will probably have to go to someone who fillet brazes frames.
