I mean damn thats just pushing the edge ain't it? I love it when a designer goes the extra mile. Who knows, maybe the bottle helped a little to lessen overall drag. You have to admit Floyd is doing a good job so far ain't he?
As a matter of fact I'm sorta in love with the time machine. Lets hope the UCI doesn't rule against Floyd's water bottle though.

i myself was wondering about that bottle. i'm hoping they don't see it as a fairing...if they do, then its bye bye aerobottle. I love all the little details on that bike. its damn-near perfect. check the sweet cranks on that bike. sooooooooo cool.
