When designing the AEROTLE bottle, it was design and flow straighteners on the rear section dramatically reduced the drag. It was also important to keep an ideal slenderness ratio which is the length divided by the width. The longer and thinner, the lower the drag and a reduced Coefficient of Drag

Our challenge was how to reduce the aerodynamic drag of aero bar setups and at the same time add a faster and safer hydration source somewhere in the area of the aero bars. Reducing the aerodynamic drag means reducing the force required to push the aero bars through the air.
