Bottle cage eyelets on top of top tube?

It’s for attaching your race number,Take the bike back to the seller the top tube is the wrong way up

I had never heard of "Bento Boxes" until this thread.

Not sure I could manage chopsticks on a bike...

Re top tube upside down ,that explains why the price was discounted

That's no good. You have to get one designed for cycling.

Yes could be may dribble a bit though ? Cant find any Screw on tri bags or similar which could be good as I think the straps on normal tribags would scuff the paint eventually.

A good friend of mine has a Canyon SpeedMax, & that has a little compartment in the top-tube, for gels/tubes, etc...
I;m sure there's also a little box that clips on, just behind the head-tube
The 'spoiler' in front of the headtube has a bladder for drinks

Last years model, I guess, as his has green accents/trim

It has to be a better place than a third cage under the down tube though, Shirley?

Sorry, surely!

Nah. Mine stores a couple of tubes. Butler's sell a purpose-made storage bottle.

I had a bunch of bottle and rack mounts brazed on a steel MTB frame I was using for touring. While I was at it I thought I may as well stick a couple on the top of the top tube. I can't remember the rationale - probably to stick a pump there. It's not a great place for a mount - if the bike's leant up against anything by the top tube, whatever's up there will catch and take the weight.

I quite like that idea, though I normally carry a bit too much to fit in a 'bottle'!

Here's my solution (Camelbak bag) ...
