XLab Torpedo Versa 200 Hydration System
Stay hydrated through your big race with the Xlab Torpedo Versa 200 Hydration System. The Torpedo leak-proof 26 fl oz (769 ml) bottle is designed with a highly aerodynamic shaping and has a clear fluid window that allows you to check how much water you have left. The Torpedo's now-legendary high-flow bite valve lets you to quickly and easily drink and the flexible straw allows you to drink from multiple positions.
The Torpedo bottle is mounted in a durable bottle cage, which allows you to quickly and easily swap out the Torpedo for other standard size water bottles. This cage is mounted to XLab's new alloy Versa plate. This no-bounce plate ensures that the bottle cage and telescoping Garmin computer mount don't rattle and remain secure and aerodynamic. The plate is easily and quickly mounted to your aero bars with two durable Velcro straps.
XLab's inclusion of a quarter-turn Garmin mount will be a welcome addition for training and race days and the mount's telescoping capabilities and adjustable angle allows you to dial in the perfect position.

Fast delivery, very well packaged. XLab Torpedo Versa 200 Hydration System was very easy to install. I does not move even when road is hectic. Only issue: when lots of holes, then water drops out thru the bite valve, so do not fill it with anything but water, otherwise, you bike and clothe may get sticky after a while. I have to adapt my aerobar extensions in an horizontal position so i can drink the full capacity of the bottle. It did not change my hands position on the bar, so aerodynamic stays as before. Important for me is that it provides a better security against traditional bottles kept on the byke's frame, since you drink w/o doing any abnormal movement, keeping your path and looking at the road. I installed as well the computer adapter kit and was able to re-use my Sigma Fox 6.0 without any problem. I did not try so far the Solid Refill Lid, but could be interesting for quick refill when needed in a race. Great stuff, i recommend, although a bit expansive (so 4 stars only)
