EliteFly Tex Bottle (750ml)(Return to Product Page)

As touted, this bottle is very lightweight, noticeably so when in use. The nozzle is removeable, making cleaning very easy. It does leak around the nozzle, which is particularly irritating when sipping sticky hydration drinks.

Very lightweight and good while it lasts, but both bottles bought have developed leaks from the base. It lasted for 6 - 10 months. They are also a bit tough to clean so need to make sure to scrum deeply with a bottle cleaner to avoid mold. They do work well with the Elite bottle cages though, which was the main reason I bought it.

As touted, this bottle is very lightweight with thin sidewalls that are easy to squeeze. The nozzle flows easily and pops off for easy cleaning. The only downside to this bottle is that the nozzle tends to partially close when you are drinking.

Perfect water bottle. Cheap, easy to fill, and easy to squeeze water out

The Elite Fly bottle (750ml) has worked well for me. I am particular about the spout, requiring ease of opening using one hand and teeth, and a good flow rate. The Elite Fly answered the mail!

The only negative is that the bottles can be easily stowed while deflated (if they are sealed before allowing to re-inflate), if stowed while deflated they are easily bounced out of the bottle cage while riding.

Overall, I recommend this product, 4-stars.

This larger capacity bottle is still

lighter than a standard size bottle, and the cap snaps open and closes easily; the lid is interchangeable with their smaller size bottle, as well, (which I also use on shorter rides).

The best part is that these caps do NOT have the rubber inner seal that always seems to deteriorate or jam.

The bottle seems to stay secure in the Elite bottle cage.

Best and easiest bottles ever. If you need an insulated bottle these are not for you, but if you want high flow easy to squeeze bottles do not hesitate to buy these. They last and are very affordable, these are all I use now.

These bottles are fantastic! They are lightweight, for sure, the lightest I've owned. However, it is their suppleness that makes them so much better to get lots of drink in one squeeze. I can squeeze the bottle until the insides touch, squeezing out about 1/3 of the bottle at a time. These are great for consuming large gulps at a time. They do not insulate at all, however, so drink your cold drink fast. If you are a big drinker, like me, you will love these bottles. I have them in all three sizes and use them according to what type of ride I'm doing. I appreciate that they are available in my cycling club's colors--pink and blue. I have two in color and five more in clear--I like them!

Also, I like how the spout pulls off completely for thorough cleaning. Definitely a plus!

A good bump popped them right out of my Arundel bottle holder, but the Tacx bottle holder holds them pretty snugly. They don't have much of a bottleneck, so they require a holder with a pretty sharp hook. The lack of a bottleneck is nice for getting high volumes in and out of the bottle quickly though.

Easily my favorite bottle. Stays secure in my bottle holders, but easy to remove and replace while riding. The spout actuates smoothly. Flexible body is very easy to squeeze to get the flow volume I want. And this textured version feels nice in my hand and adds just a bit of extra grip without making it more difficult to get out of bottle holders. I have several Elite Fly bottles in both sizes along with the non textured version in multiple colors, and while I've tried several other brands and styles I have yet to find any that are as good as these!

Elite's Fly bottle is highly volume efficient and very light. It's the shortest 750mL bottle I've found, and I've checked by weighing a full bottle after zeroing out the empty weight. The problem is it constantly dribbles its contents out the base of the nozzle despite making sure it's as closed as it can get. My bottle and, my bottle cage and my downtube almost always end up covered in sticky mix; this is especially bad with 100g of carbs in one bottle. I usually stick 100g of table sugar plus one Nuun tab in my bottles. The effervescence from the Nuun tablet seems to exacerbate the issue. Hopefully Elite revises the caps/nozzles soon?

I really did not think a water bottle could impress me. Bought it mainly for the bright red color. This is an amazing bottle! Easy to squeeze, lightweight, great flow, easy to open the valve without pulling out your front teeth, carries a lot of water for its apparent size. Reasonably priced. I don't care about insulation, so I only tried their non-insulated. Perfection.

I really like this bottle, it flows great, is soft enough to squeeze, lid doesn't leak at all (no drink mix leaking leading to sticky hands). The top pulls apart really easy to fully clean and while the upper indent is small it has a square edge that hooks into bottle cages and keeps bottles secure even on rough gravel

As I squeeze with ease and water blasts me in the face I experience a revelation: THIS is the ultimate cycling hydration vessel.

I've bought 550ml fly tex bottle first and it's been good. Easy to drink, good water flow and can be disassembled to clean.

So I decided to buy bigger ones for longer rides.

Also the clear ones show the color of the contents which can be both good and bad. Good that you can see what's inside and how much, bad when the color doesn't match your bike's aesthetics.

Lightweight and fits in the cage securely

I love these bottles. If you have an XS small frame they are an easy way to fit a 750 bottle because they aren't as tall. Lightweight, easy to clean, great value.

It's probably hard to get excited about water bottles, but in this case you should. Lighter, more malleable, easier to drink from a clean, these are an affordable upgrade worth your consideration. Highly recommended.

Durable, easy to clean, and incredibly easy to use on the bike.

This is the fastest flowing easiest water bottle I have ever drank from. It is 1/2 the weight of most water bottles as well. One of the cheapest weight reductions to your setup. Retention is good. No smell or taste.
