Nice good water bottle
Opted for the beige water bottle, something different for once. Fits perfectly in my bottle cages (also purchased through Mantel).

Easy to use just too bad it damages so quickly
If you don't mind the text coming off quickly and being damaged, it is highly recommended

Excellent light weight water bottle
57gr for the 750ml version. My "normal" water bottles are 98gr. With two, that's still almost 100gr "gain" should you care.

Best water bottle I ever had
The best water bottle I've had to date, have the black version. Easy to squeeze, a fine drinking spout that is easy to open and close and lets a lot of drink through if you want. Easy to fill due to large opening so no messing with powders. And then it's light too! That it scratches and the logos come off a bit quickly, yes but that is hardly different with other water bottles. Have no reason to believe it won't last a whole season. It fits perfectly in my BBB holders. Only minor drawback is that the large version is a bit small. 750ml is really filled to the brim. You often see that different with other models. The 550ml Fly, for example, holds 600ml.

Fine light water bottle
Fine light water bottle that you drink easily from. Nice drinking cap too. I like it better than the Tacx caps. I left the bottle empty in the sun on the windowsill. The heat caused the bottle to deform slightly. Made a small dent in it.

Super light and great user experience
We always buy these Elite bottles (we have like 5 of them). Reasonably priced, do not taste like plastic and the nozzle is just great.

I like the water bottle and motivates me to cycle.
While cycling very easy to use. Very easy to squeeze. The drinking hole seems a bit larger, giving you "a lot in one gulp.

No nonsense water bottle that is definitely recommended.
Great inexpensive and compact water bottle. Does not rattle and wring in Elite's carbon holders. This is different with the Corsa and other models of this brand. Because of the flat cap, the bottle is not as long as other models. That takes some getting used to when you're facing the road, blindly trying to grab your water bottle from the front. The same goes for putting it back in its holder. The water bottle hardly weighs anything and you don't have to use much force to squeeze it. The material is nice and flexible. The wide opening makes it easy to clean. Also the cap and spout can easily be taken apart for cleaning. The only disadvantage is that the bottle discolors quickly due to dyes in beverages. By the way, that says more about the drinks than the water bottle. But a transparent water bottle that turns completely yellow quickly doesn't look fresh anymore. You make that mistake once and since the bottle is not expensive, I immediately ordered a new one.

Drinks well due to good mouthpiece and flexibility, but fails at keeping the liquid in.
I love the design, you drink from it very easily because the flexible material allows you to suck or squeeze through nicely. The large mouthpiece also contributes to this, it is comfortable and also easy to open. A water bottle has two functions, thirst quenching when needed and storing the liquid the rest of the time. At the latter, this product fails. At first use already leakage, mainly from under the mouthpiece. This worsened after a few uses to substantial splashing every time you close the mouthpiece. I wonder if this is inherent in the design or if my water bottle is slightly defective.

Goed maar slijtage gevoelig.
Erg fijne bidon, drinkt makkelijk door goeie dop. Beschadigd wel erg snel waardoor hij al na een paar keer gebruiken oud lijkt

Practical lightweight water bottles.
Personally find these very nice water bottles to use. Super light, nice looking and sit super in the Elite bottle cages. Disadvantage, they do get wear spots very quickly. And available in a wide range of colors and sizes.

A good water bottle for little
Matches my expectation. Good to squeeze and get a good amount of drink in.

Fine water bottle at a neat price!
The flexible material and light weight makes this water bottle somewhat unique. I have two of 500ml that I take with me on the shorter evening trips.

Thin, floppy and lightweight water bottles
Fine lightweight water bottle, but very sturdy they are not. The material is very thin. Not a good combination with the Elite Custom Bottle Holder. They are way too tight in here and deform completely. And once they are in, they don't stay straight. Very unfortunate.

Too good to be true
Looks nice on the pictures but once put into use the water bottle quickly loses its shape due to the (too) thin material and gets all scratches on it which makes it look bad

For the price, a fine water bottle, but a little too wide.
Nice light water bottle with easy outflow, which I am very happy with after years of rigid water bottles. It does sit just too tight in the holder which damages the paint quickly and makes it hard to take out.

Good biddon, slightly less prone to mold (and thus nasty odors)
Exactly the impression that this PVC composition is slightly less susceptible to mold than the other biddons on the market. So hangs nasty odors a little less easily (some always manage of course :).

Good large water bottle.
Not really important. But too bad the letters come off so quickly.

Good water bottle
The water bottle sits tightly in the holder but is also easily grabbed out, drinks easily and then seals well again and personal taste: the blue color matches my bike well.

Super Lightweight bottle
Been using these for a while now and they are the lightest bottles I have found. They do last pretty long too which is good.

A big gulp between two breaths
A super-light, flexible can with a high-flow nozzle. I've got three of them, and I'm very happy with them. I highly recommend them.

The best water bottles!
I started with the cheap Tacx bidons of few € because I thought there can't be that much difference with the more expensive bidons. Well I can say that these Elite Fly bottles are from another planet and not even much more expensive considering the good price at Mantel. The water bottles are light, flexible, and "smooth" to use. Have a set of black and beige water bottles and I'm going to order the gray ones too! Have to say though that howevel the beige ones are very fancy they words quickly get dirty from 'road dust' and don't get them clean. With the black ones you don't see that. Therefore 7/10 for the beige and 10/10 for black.
