Reviews over the

Elite Fly

If you don't mind the text coming off quickly and being damaged, it is highly recommended

Pros & Cons

Good and decent drinking can for little money.

Pros & Cons

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

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Everything okay

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Choked on so much water coming out the first time. Not used to it, haha!

Pros & Cons

Ordered the water bottles earlier, the best I've had in years

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

While cycling very easy to use. Very easy to squeeze. The drinking hole seems a bit larger, giving you "a lot in one gulp.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Matches my expectation. Good to squeeze and get a good amount of drink in.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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

Pros & Cons

Fine light water bottles which have a good solid cap!

Pros & Cons

Used it on 3 rides so far and I'm absolutely happy with the bottle. Fits great, sits great, easy to use.

Pros & Cons

Easy drinking due to the soft material.

Easy to use. The flexible material makes it easy to squeeze for quick drinking.

Pros & Cons

I only use this type of water bottle because of the convenience of the mouthpiece

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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 :).

Pros & Cons

Not really important. But too bad the letters come off so quickly.

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.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Nice and light (every gram counts ;-) ), does not leak, drinks perfectly

Pros & Cons

Lightweight water bottle. Dents a bit in your water bottle cage so it scratches quickly.

Pros & Cons

Very practical, flexible bottle for drinking, easy to wash compared with older models. Impeccable

Pros & Cons

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.

Pros & Cons

Very nice to use, good flow without too much effort by squeezing or sucking, and stay fresh

Pros & Cons

Great product. Not for dishwasher!!! Distortion...
