hmmm...i had one and liked it. it especially came in handy when i help a friend set up a mid 90's trek 520. now, i don't know about other sizes of this frame, but at least with his 23" the seat tube bottle mounts are low so that the derailleur has to mount behind the cage. nothing but that endless band would fit in there. otoh, a different bottle cage could have made the difference, but that's the cage he had
