Just a good water bottle.
Excellent water bottle. Fits well in a standard bottle cage. Light weight and easy to squeeze.

Ideal water bottles until they start leaking
These would have been perfect water bottles if they didn't start leaking at/under the valve after several months in use.

Medium
Great water bottles for cycling, but totally unsuitable for mountain biking. The bottles do not seal very well, so they leak quickly. Because of the thin wall, the bottle is very limp, causing the drink to squirt out. And the shape is straight, so there is no grip. All features that are inconvenient for mountain biking, but need not be a problem for cycling.

After a few uses not so nice anymore.
Nice water bottle but scratches very fast. So is quickly ugly.

Light, but too soft
The water bottle is definitely light, and not expensive. I just find it too soft and thin. They get dented by my BBB bottle cage, not ideal.

Comfortable.
Comfort and lightness, it adapts better than others to the bottle cage of the brand facilitating the extraction.

Good products
Good, light canisters, but they mark up very quickly when you put them on and take them off the canister holder. One 3-hour outing and they feel like they're already 1 year old.

Wears out quickly.
My previous water bottles from Elite were, after 7 years, in need of replacement. Obviously chose Elite again, like them very much. But these look like they are a year old after only 1 use. The print is almost gone. The plastic is also thinner, I was also disappointed. I like the cap better than the Tacx cap. For still a bit of a setback.

Fine thing but a little too slippery for my holders
Nice light water bottle but is a bit on the slippery side. Which made the bottle fly out of its holder at the first real bump.

Overall, a good product for the road.
A little light on thickness for mountain biking.

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.

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.

Fine light water bottles which have a good solid cap!

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.
