Water bottle options on a Bird Aether 9a

I have an Aether 9a in ML. Currently got an old side entry bottle cage in there with a 500ml bottle. I quite fancy a Fidlock setup instead, mainly because it looks nicer. Has anyone used one on an Aether 9a? Ideally I'd like a 750ml bottle but that might be a bit snug. I also have a pump holder underneath the bottle cage to make things even more awkward.ย

Fidlock have a newer 750 bottle that's wider/fatter instead of longer, might suit

They work fine with pump holders IME - but you might need to source bolts with a flat head that are long enough - they supply bolts that sit flush, other bolts with a larger head can stop the bottle contacting the magnets properly

Yeah Peaty's do the fatter bottle. Need to check the dimensions and have a measure
