Don't fancy one slung under the down tube but sure I have seen a bottle with one concaved side
recently somewhere that might fit

Cheers

I'm surprised at the lack of response considering the amount of Capras' around now.

Most people will probably use a backpack.

I find them uncomfortable so for my FS bike I used two Elite Custom Race cages, drilled the plastic sides and zip tied to the top of the downtube. Front of the bottles sit between forks and bars, angled slightly downwards to avoid knees.

Works well for me.

As it happens, last night I was shaping a piece of wood to fit in the top angle of the top tube, just in front of the seat tube. Planning to attach a bottle cage to the wood. It will look pig ugly but my rad skills on the trail will mesmerise onlookers.

Always keen to see people's water bottle solutions so please post pictures of your creations.
Someone on here recommended the SKS Anywhere bottle mount.
It's very very good.

The Capra is an enduro bike!

Who rides an enduro without full kit pack?
