There is a lot of space to mount stuff on a 71cm frame.

All these years we've all been way too short!

Good golly, what a massive headtube. I've never seen a frame that massive out in the wild before.

Yeah, no need to fumble around the DT/ST anymore if I were only 40cm taller.

Shouldve put the Nalgene size bottle cage and used a long straw

Large frames are not aesthetically pleasing, IMO. Water bottle mounted on the headtube takes it over the top.

I feel the same way about anything small.

Looks like it would be easier to grab from there. Hard to imagine a head tube that big.

What i love about the internet, any bit of insanity can be found. Yes it's true.
TotalDesignTM Aqeuous Protection Revolution One (APR1) When you completely run out of space on your frame, handlebars, seat post, etc., don't despair. A new helmet that I saw at Interbike in 2009 now sports an integrated bottle cage. Alas this cage is permanently attached and you are limited to this specific cage unless you want to remove the rivets and change it to something else. Available only in black. Personally I think the weight of a full water bottle would be uncomfortable and that it would be inconvenient to access the bottle. I would also think that the bottle and cage could affect helmet performance. On the other hand a bottle could provide extra impact protection. Combining head protection with hydration is so obvious that it's amazing that no one thought of it before. The manufacturer stated that the APR1 would be available in the U.S. on February 30th, 2010 but I haven't seen it yet.

I'd be worried about damage to the neck in a crash with a water bottle on the helmet.

I think your headtube is longer than my top tube.
