The bike - aforementioned hack included - is gone now, so it doesn't matter anymore. To answer your question, though, the bottle actually sat higher than it would on my Speed or Mu (both of which thankfully have bottle cage bosses from the factory; no such shenanigans required.) It sat higher than it would on a typical diamond frame such as my 7.6, with the added convenience of not having to fiddle my way around a top tube reaching down for it.
