An idea for the lower bottle mount. I understand why you had to put the braze on's where you did but why not make a offset bracket for the bottle mount. That will let you have it over the joint and give you clearance for a full size bottle. Only down side will be you may have to remove the cage to disassemble the frame but that would be minimal hassle. If it ever has to go back to the builder have him add another bung below the joint and build a bracket to straddle the joint to get it even lower.

Please keep a blog or a site of your travels and let us know the address.

I had a freind that went to school in China for a couple years and the pictures he sent back were incredible.
