torhans hydration system and others

The Aero 30™ is the most aerodynamic, aero-bar mounted, hydration system on the market today. With its 30oz capacity high aspect ratio bottle design, dual-channel mounting system, patent pending AeroFlow™ straw, and XFlow fill-on-the-go cap, this bottle will keep you fast and hydrated without ever coming out of your aero position.

The design of the Aero 30 meshes perfectly with your time trial or triathlon bike. With its 72-degree trailing-edge bottle and its dual vertical mounting channels, the Aero 30™ is set to match the head tube of most time trial and triathlon bicycles available today. As well, the adjustable mount can accommodate bar widths up to 14cm. Additionally, the unique dual-channel mounting systems gives you the ability to integrate the TorHans™ AeroTray™ (sold separately) to the unused channel, where it can hold your bike computer, energy gels, map, or whatever else you need handy.

Fast isn’t enough at TorHans™, and that’s why the Aero 30™ is also BPA free! This ensures that your Aero 30™ has no bad plastic taste or unhealthy chemicals.

Aero 30™ "Best in Category" at TriSports.com
The TorHans™ Aero 30™ nails "Best in Category" in the TriSports.com Aero Drink Systems review. "It’s an elegant refinement that leads the category. Rating: 5 Stars of Five: Best in Category. Claimed best aerodynamics, good fit, unique straw design, integrates other accessories with optional mount. Best with flat aerobars. Expensive, but worth it."

“The advantages of handlebar mounted aero drink systems are improved aerodynamics and little effect on bike handling. They are easier to drink from, meaning you’ll likely drink more.”keep the straw as short as possible,

King Top Cap Bottle Cage Mount.

Brilliant. Simple. Cheap. The King Top Cap Bottle Cage Mount replaces your aheadset top cap; you simply use the included button-cap screws to mount a bottle cage to that. Voila! The system, if you could call it that, works elegantly and simply and doesn’t weigh much. Mounting is secure if you bolt it down tight, but it can rotate accidentally since an oversized bottle puts a lot of leverage on it. There isn’t much fore/aft adjustment for the position of the mount, only what is designed into your bottle cage.

For less than $10 this system is actually worth a try, and if you do decide to try it the simple elegance may be an easy, cheap solution to your aerobar hydration needs. As with all cockpit style bottle mounts the intention is for you to remove the bottle from the cage mounted to this bracket to drink. That isn’t as aero as drinking from a straw, but you can exchange bottles on the fly in an aid station.
