It's useful for my particular setup to have the bottle mounts a bit lower. I ride a 54cm frame and use Polar water bottles which are a bit taller than standard, and I have a frame pump mounted under my top tube. If the bottle mounts are too high, the top of my bottle hits the frame pump...so maybe the lower mounts should be a size specific feature?

I suppose you could use spacers to hop over the derailleur clamp. It'll be tough to reach down that far to grab the bottle while riding. Why not have it higher? Something I'm missing?
