Bottle Cage adapters
If anyone wants one, I am making a few extra bottle cage adapters. I have a super small Gravel frame, which actually ends up fitting me best and a slightly more aero position. I ended up printing and making a bunch of these cage adapters which allow me to throw larger bottles in my frame.
I sell these fairly cheep, for $20 shipped. Let me know if this solves your problems. It was a major change for me!

Other options: Wolf Tooth makes several bottle cage adapters. They let you move bottles up and down, there's another one that moves to offset angles and another one that lets you mount 2 bottles side by side. All metal, good products.

The Wolf Tooth B-Rad system is really great. I am running it on one of my bikes right now and can fit two bottles on the seat tube, or one bottle and one roll-top bag, plus still have room for a bottle on the down tube.

This looks great for certain bikes. Can you strap it to a bike frame as wwell to get an extra bottle on a frame with just one mount?

I've never attempted that, but I see no reason one could not. But in the age of 3d printing, that would be an easy thing to design.
