Usage Features:

Mounting to Bike:

  1. Rotate the top of the computer mount forward to allow room for the bottle.
  2. Remove the Torpedo Bottle from the cage by twisting and pulling.
  3. Loosen the mounting clamp screws using a 3 mm Hex Wrench.
  4. Place the mount on the aerobars by positioning each clamp onto the extensions, ensuring a secure fit.
  5. Center the mounting plate and hand tighten the screws.
  6. Secure the Velcro straps by routing them through the clamps and pulling them tight.
  7. Tighten both mounting clamp screws to 4.0 Nm (35 in-lbs).

Bottle Install:

  1. Select the appropriate straw hole (forward or rearward). The plug goes in the opposite hole. To switch, push the plug from the top and remove from the bottle, then insert the plug into the new hole from inside the bottle.
  2. Trim the straw to the desired length at an angle for easier installation.
  3. Insert the straw by pinching the end and pushing it through the chosen hole. If using a solid lid, ensure the straw goes through the tether hole.
  4. Position the straw in the bottle's bottom groove: in front for a more horizontal straw, behind for a more vertical straw.
  5. Place the bottle in the cage by pushing it straight back until it clicks and locks into place, ensuring the rear tab slides into the bottle recess.
  6. The pre-installed Dolphin Tail can be used to tuck the straw underneath to keep it out of the way while riding.

Dolphin Breather Valve Install (if re-installing):

  1. Remove the old breather valve and clean any remaining adhesive.
  2. Apply a small amount of food-grade silicone adhesive to the underside of the new breather valve head.
  3. Insert the valve into the hole, ensuring it is fully inserted and the top is flat against the bottle.
  4. Clean up any excess silicone with a wet rag.
  5. Allow adhesive to set for at least 24 hours before use/washing. The flange of the valve should fit completely below the bottle surface.

Adjust Versa Computer Mount:

  1. Loosen the side screw at the base of the mount using a 3 mm Hex Wrench.
  2. Adjust the computer mount's height by moving the post. The top can then be rotated to the preferred angle.
  3. Tighten the side screw to 2.8 Nm (25 in-lbs) to lock the mount in place.
  4. Attach the computer and rotate as needed.

For Garmin Multisport Watches & Wahoo Computers:

  1. Remove the two screws at the top of the computer mount using a 2 mm Hex Wrench.
  2. Rotate the holder 90 degrees.
  3. Reinsert and tighten the screws.
  4. Torque both screws to 1.1 Nm (10 in-lbs).

  1. Fill the Torpedo Bottle with soapy water.
  2. Cover the holes on top of the bottle with one hand.
  3. Shake the bottle vigorously.
  4. Rinse and repeat.

Straw Care:
