XLAB Torpedo Versa Bottle: Super-Sealed™, No-Leak Bottle Design
Go ahead! Turn the new Torpedo Versa BTA bottle upside down or shake it around – new leak-free bottle design keeps liquids inside.
Torpedo Versa Telescoping Computer Mount
The newest way to activate #torpedospeed is here. Finally, a computer mount that perfectly positions data no matter what type of bottle you like to use. Raise the computer mount up to tuck in a Refill Bottle for race day, or lower it down to clear a Standard Bottle to maintain the optimal view for training days.
Aerogeeks: "The new computer mount is quite simply fantastic. Placing your computer is a personal decision – do you go behind the BTA, on top of, or in front? If you are like [our chief editor], the only proper place for a computer is as far forward as possible (to allow you to easily view the computer with simple eye movements instead of having to move your whole head). The new mount allows exactly that."
