Good standard bottle. Only complaint is that the opening for filling is narrow, which makes filling with powder messy.
I prefer the Elite Fly. It has a larger opening, is lighter, easier to squeeze, and is shorter with nearly the same volume.
Not as light or squeezey as the regular Elite bottles. But, plant based should be better for us all long term, I guess?
I am so glad I purchased this water bottle after trying to find a simple squeeze-type water bottle with a decent fluid capacity that wasn't ridiculously expensive, leaked, and/or left the contents with an overt plastic/chemical taste. I was very surprised at how much fluid this bottle held while still not being overly tall and therefore a pain to set/remove while riding due to my bikes smaller/compact frame. There is no chemical/plastic taste, and the nipple works well and has a nice self-closing/collapsing feature, so you don't need to push it back in with your teeth before setting it like I was doing with my previous water bottle (which I'm sure wasn't very good for my teeth over time).
I can highly recommend this bottle as a go-to if you're a commuter like me that likes to do the occasional 25-35 mile weekend ride, but don't want to spend the kind of money on a water bottle that could get you another piece of gear or a part for your bike.
Elite bottles deliver water quickly with just a little squeeze.
