EliteFly Bottle (550ml)(Return to Product Page)

If you have the Elite Vico cage, this is a (the only?) bottle that will definitely fit. It weighs virtually nothing. The cap design works well for me. The 2 negatives on the bottle are that the graphics wear off pretty quickly, and the clear bottle stained the first use from my drink mix. Neither of these issues bother me too much, since I keep buying these bottles. The oldest one I have is about 3 seasons old, and it functions just fine.

Great Bottle and works well in the carrier

I love the bottles and they look amazing (new). Lightweight and I didn't find any issue at all with the thin sidewalls or valves.

My only negative is that the lettering and branding on the bottle quickly rub off from the bottle cages.

Fantastic color choices featherweights,If your weight- weenie These are 31.3 grams less then a standard specialized water bottle.

Your best bet is to use these for your Short fast group rides or crit races,

I have no issue with these leaking Easy to clean to.

Doesn't off flavor water. Larger volume. Light with easy to use spout. Diameter is a little slim for many cages. Bottle can pop out when hitting a big bump.

I got a pair of these to use on shorter rides, and found they were easy to use, easy to drink out of while riding and look great on the bike..being the right size and clean lines. I think I will get more soon...

This bottle is so thin that when you try to drink out of it, it compress's. Then you have to try to get it back to it original shape. Don't waste your money.

Water is leaking by the nozzle, is so flimsy.

I was in the market for a nice water bottle, and this is the one. If you have a bike thats red, it looks good on it. If you have a bike thats white, and blue, you can use it on Independence Day! Any other color bike would probably look good too though, but I havent tried it yet. Give it a try. Maybe you can get lucky like me. Oh yeah, it holds water well too.

I used store credit to get this bottle & cage for my bike, so the value for this bottle is phenomenal. The Elite bottle is finished in grey white & red graphics which match my bike perfectly. The bottle fits snugly in the cage & will be used to stow liquids & gels.

Avoid this water bottle. It's so flimsy that it collapses when you flip it upside down to drink out of it. Also, the nozzle is so loose that by pressing against it with your lips you automatically close it. So impossible to drink out of with one hand. Need one hand to keep the nozzle from closing and the other hand to squeeze the bottle. Pointless.

I bought three of these bottles to use on my indoor trainer. Unfortunately, one had a small hole in the bottom in the injection site that dripped incessantly, one leaks around the nozzle when I drink, and one works fine. I'm not too broken up about it because I purchased these on closeout at a ridiculously low price. It didn't seem worth the trouble to go through the return process, etc. just for a few bucks. So hopefully BikeTiresDirect has exhausted their inventory of these pitiful products and I will try to be less of a cheapskate in my future purchases.

Not like the complimentary bottles that companies give out. Just try one and I think you will be back for another one.

I bought this to check out the claims. Yes, you can save some grams. However, the plastic is very thin as expected and it can stay sucked in after taking a drink as the valve self-closes and then it doesn't fit in the cage correctly.

I wouldn't use it as a daily bottle, but I will save it for Strava hunting ,-)

Easy to grab and squeeze while riding hard. Nozzle opens and closes very easily.

What can I say about a lightweight water bottle? It holds water, fits my bottle cage, and holds enough liquid for my purposes. If you purchase one on sale, so much the better.

This water bottle is light and easy to squeeze. Doesn't leak. Easy to clean. I tend to drink more on rides using this bottle.

excellent purchase

Second set of these bottles I've purchased. Use all four bottles daily on endurance rides.Plan on ordering four more.

Wide mouth makes it easy to load with ice. Easy to squeeze while riding and flow is steady. Ultralight but very effective.
