    by the way though, behind the seat can be horribly unaerodynamic

    Why so ?
    I thought the whole idea was that they improved aerodynamics
    In that case perhaps I dont need em then

    I have read that on a standard (non-shaped) road frame, one bottle on the frame is more aero than no bottles, and that of the two options seattube is slightly more aero than the down tube.

    depends alot on the rider and position but basically the air coming off the riders back and down the back of the saddle is clean air. If its clean air leave it clean. Same with bento boxes up against the seatpost rather than stem.
