I can't because my MTB doesn't even have the space for a single water
bottle of decent size. Even the bike dealer where I bought is said
"WHAT?? How could they now have that?". So I mounted one holder on the
handlebar (I have a bike with a cup holder now!) plus modded the rear
section for some heavy duty longhaul schlepping.

Naah, under the down tube, maybe even on top of the down tube close to
bottom bracket. And you could fit a real keg on top of the top tubes.


On top of the top tube does seem like the best location for water
on Joerg's Fuji. Looks like a nice spot for a strap-on cage, one
that could hold a large bike bottle. Then add a short bottle in the
main triangle to supplement the big one up top and some weight can
come out of those panniers... perhaps to enable a second growler at
appropriate times?
