Aero Bottle Design

The XLAB Torpedo system is the most aero BTA bottle on the market. It is designed to be extremely verstile with it's aerobar positioning, as well as dissapear from turbulent air between riders' arms. As a triathlete and a designer, I worked with XLAB to create initial concepts for this aero bottle system.
