Silvery Bicycle Water Bottle Cage Handlebar Adapter

Silvery Bicycle Water Bottle Cage Handlebar AdapterBefore ordering take note that this holder does NOT fit 99% of the water bottle cages that you will use. I am an avid cyclist and the STANDARD size water bottle cage has a bolt pattern that is too wide for this holder. Also the one shipped to me did NOT come with the rubber gasket pictured. Making it hard to get a good grip and I had to tighten the mess out of it to stay put. Other than that there is nothing wrong with the product build quality and it was shipped fast.

These adapters work great on mountain bike handlebars. I did have to drill a hole in the bottle cage to accommodate this adapter, but it all worked out just fine.

Bottles Up Glass Water Bottle (Black)

Bottles Up Glass Water Bottle - Black #BU-BLK
  • Size: 22 oz

The BEST Water Bottle I''ve ever bought. Quality Quality Quality.Thick glass,but isn''t heavy. The Cap stays on and doesn''t leak. I Love This Bottle.Yes,it''s pricey but I believe this bottle could last forever.I''m sooo sick of replacing everything yearly,due to poor construction. I don''t even worry about dropping it.I will be buying more of these. Great Product. I found this item by chance,does not show up under glass water bottle,but under the company name Bottles Up....should be easier to locate on Amazon search. Buy It.

*****

This water bottle is really a work of art rather than just a water bottle. It has a high-quality hand-made look to it. The glass is thick and wavy with tiny bubbles in it, so sturdy. The silicone grips are soft and secure. The silicone top is also soft but strong; it hangs down when it is off rather than sticking out and dripping.

All of the silicone parts can be removed to clean occasionally; only the top would need to be cleaned every time. The bottle has a wide mouth and is very easy to clean with a bottle brush. The company suggests that if your bottle is used for water, then a quick warm water rinse would work; for the occasional deep clean, you can shake with warm soapy water and rinse.

The glass bottle is optimal for the taste and safety of your water, plus you can see just how much liquid is in the bottle. The bottle is also very safe--the silicone is food grade and BPA-free and PVC-free. The bottle is made from at least 75% post-consumer recycled glass and has no plastic whatsoever.

It is very expensive, but it is for me worth every penny. I hope to use it for many years to come.

Highly recommended.

Thick, strong glass, rubber grips makes this durable and droppable.

Best tasting drink, stainless steel rocks, but it does make the water taste metallic, glass is better.

It''s designed so the rubber does not touch the fluid or your lips, keeping the pure taste intact

What i do not like about this bottle: 1) the top comes off easily in my tote bag, drenching my stuff with water 2) I wish it had some kind of handle. I originally thought I could carry it by the loop the top makes, but as I said before the top comes off EASILY, annoying so. I am presently looking for a wide mouth glass bottle with a SCREW TOP, perhaps metal with a rubber seal, and a way to carry it, like a loop or something. I do like that it is thick glass and has an aesthetically pleasing design. It is just not functional for me. I hate when I think i''ve solved a problem and I haven''t.

Stainless Steel Water Bottle Canteens Family 4 Pack 25oz.

Stainless Steel Water Bottle Canteens Family 4 Pack 25oz. - 4 Color VarietyLove these water bottles! Bought the 4 pack, which was cheaper than buying individually. Packaged well and shipped fast. Perfect size to travel with. I travel alot and was tired of constantly having to buy plastic water bottles, then having to fight with the water fountains to fill them up once empty. These bottles are great. Wide mouth fits ice cubes well, and easier to fill in water fountain that standard bottles. The loop on the lid is also very handy. Like the ad says, not good for hot liquids. It''s thin metal and really heats up. But that doesn''t affect cold water. Pretty durable so far. been dropped and bumped agains concrete walls. So far, so good. Somebody mentioned that the rubber coating wears off, not sure what they were talking about. No rubber coating, Just paint, and it''s held up pretty well so far. Highly recommend there!

I''ve ordered bottles by this brand, SGS, several times, mostly because they are inexpensive, and have a metal lid. I put essential oils in my water, which will disintegrate the plastic, so I have to have the metal lid. We''ve had good results, except for the paint coming off the colored ones. The bottles do dent if you drop them, but we''ve used a hammer to get the bottoms flat again, and it''s not really an issue. We are pretty hard on them, and they go everywhere with us, so I definitely expect some wear and tear. Overall, I like the brand.

The set I just ordered, though, listed as SGS with 4 colors, is a little different. The silver bottle is the only one that seems to be the same sturdy bottle we''ve had before. The others I can actually bend a little by my squeezing them, and I''m a petite woman. We haven''t used them enough to know how durable they will be, but I''m having some doubts. Another thing, though, is that one bottle has a ''together bottle'' logo on the side (the company that sent them, one says ''ECOtanka'' on the bottom, and the other two are brandless. My last SGS bottle had their logo on the side. So, they aren''t even SGS bottles! If they perform well, I''m not too bothered by that, because the price is so low, but if they say they''re selling you the SGS bottles, they should be. At this price, though, with a metal lid, they are still hard to beat. My other option is to buy a Klean Kanteen for $20, then a separate metal lid for another $10. These were 4 for $25! The lids on these are a newer design, which is nice, and each came with a carabiner. We''ll see how they hold up, but I probably won''t order again from the Together Bottle seller, since I''m not sure what I''ll be getting.

These bottles are great and the price is perfect. I received them in the original manufacturers box covered in bubble pouches with the care tag on them. They are exactly as pictured (blue, red, black and unfinished) and I''ve been using them for a couple of weeks now w/o issue. I like to fill them with filtered water at home and toss them in my gym bag. They do not leak at all and the water has no funny taste which were really my only expectations. At $5 a piece I couldn''t have expected better and have found no fault. Picture uploaded of the engraved bottom another user warns to look for and one pic of the bubble pouches they came in so you can get a sense of the protection for shipping which was adequate IMHO.

These bottles are terrific and so affordable. When they first arrived, I was concerned that my daughter would have a hard time with the metal lid, it took a little more torgue than the plastic lids to close. When I voiced my concerns to the company, they suggested BPA free plastic lids. Within a few days they arrived and they work beautifully. The email exchanges were so friendly, efficient, and professional. I will buy more when we need them!

Good bottles... the price is right and my set has gotten a lot of use. I washed them pretty well when i first got them and they havent tainted the taste of my water at all. They dont leak and I would definitely buy the set again if i ever end up needing four more bottles. My only beef was the colors came a bit differently than what was shown and i ended up with a black, blue, orange, and an unpainted stainless...but this doesnt really effect the functionality. :-)

Katadyn Vario Multi Flow Water Microfilter Save 13% off

Katadyn Vario Multi Flow Water MicrofilterI recently went to the Ecuadorian Amazon and spent a week living in the rain forest with indigenous people. I went on long treks and relied on the Vario to deliver drinking water from streams I passed on the way. The fact that I never got sick is a testament to the effectiveness of the Vario.

It was easy to hook up directly to my CamelBak, so there was no chance of contamination. Whenever I used it, I had it in the "longer life" setting where you pump a little less water per minute, but it passes through both filters inside. I''ve used several other filters and the speed and ease which I was able to fill up my 100oz Camelbak is far superior to any of them. The pumping motion is easy to use and it pumps a lot more water even on the "Longer life" (slow) setting than other filters.

Overall I think it is a fantastic product that I would recommend to anyone traveling to locations where you don''t know if you can trust the water.

I agree with consensus of prior reviews that it''s good all around, faster than other models, but has some issues w/back pressure & leaking if you pump too fast or while using the "faster flow" setting instead of "longer life". The faster setting bypasses the ceramic filter (your biological nasty filter) and uses only the charcoal (some bio, chemicals & taste, like your average Brita filter).

I bought this instead of Katadyn''s Pocket Microfilter (found for $179 on some sites at the time) for 4 main reasons:

1) ability to attach directly to Nalgene bottle. I''ll be using this primarily while living overseas in areas w/questionable tap water, so this is a nice convenience. Don''t think the Pocket filter allows this.

2)2-stage filter w/activated charcoal to remove chemicals, pesticides & bad taste. This option isn''t available w/the ceramic-only Pocket Microfilter, and again was something I want specifically due to where I''m going. If chemicals aren''t an issue where you''ll be, this aspect might not matter to you.

3) Double-piston design for faster output & ease of use compared to the Pocket Microfilter. Pumping action was simple & ergonomic.

4) Cost. $80 is great compared to $180+. I may regret that mentality if/when this breaks, but for now it''s a good deal.

Three things so far that I''m not excited about:

1) Although they state that the paper carbon "cartridge" is good for 500 gallons, the instructions say that the activated charcoal INSIDE the cartridge should be replaced about every 50 gallons or every 6 months, depending on chemical content/taste of the water. I felt deceived after discovering this omission from the reviews I read. Not printed anywhere in their online documentation, but REI does mention it. Without the charcoal, I might as well have purchased the more expensive Pocket filter w/lifetime warranty & just use a separate PUR/Brita pitcher for taste & chemicals (which I''ll probably do anyway)... (The pocket filter''s ceramic filter has a life of 13,000 gallons, compared to the 1000 gallons of the Vario''s ceramic pre-filter).

2) The back-pressure & leaking issues mentioned by people in other reviews seem to be true, but mainly occur after removing the "source" tube to flush the system. After a few pumps, handle resistance increases & it wouldn''t lower fully. I have to unscrew the pump head to release the pressure, which of course splatters water everywhere. This could potentially contaminate your filtered water if you''re not careful.

3) This doesn''t seem like the simplest system to use, clean & maintain. Several O-rings & moving parts to deal with. Also, the plastic housing may or may not hold up over time. We''ll see.

Since I need a filter for travel/living overseas where the water is allegedly contaminated both w/chemicals and biological stuff, I''ll keep this around & replace the charcoal until it breaks. After I get back, I''ll probably get the more expensive filter for camping/backpacking use. This one is a bit large too, but hopefully will be ok.

The inlet connector broke after the first day of our 7 day canoe trip. We are not rough with our filters as we have had our other filter for several years with no issues like this. We just wanted something that wouldn''t clog so quickly.

We spent the rest of the trip either floating in the water next to or leaning over the side of the canoe with the filter submerged to enable us to pump clean water. Also, there is a little plug under the ceramic filter that will stop all water flow if it gets pushed in. This seemed to happen if the pressure in the filter built up by pumping too quickly. We had to disassemble and reassemble the filter several times to correct this issue.

When the filter was working, it was fast and filtered very well. The ceramic pre-filter was great. The water was clean, clear and tasted great. If this filter was more durable I would give it 4 or 5 stars.

Hope this helps anyone in the market for a water filter.

Read Best Reviews of Katadyn Vario Multi Flow Water Microfilter Here

Since I''ve got a lot of water filter/purifiers, I feel I can safely and objectively compare my experience with them in reviewing this Vario. For sure, it''s a little heavier and bulkier than say, a Hiker Pro. At it''s best, it works great. At it''s worst...well, more about that later.

First the pros and cons;

Pro;

1. It can pump fast and with only mild effort. The bidirectional pump action can really move the water, especially if you have it setup to bypass the ceramic disk.

2. I love the threaded bottle adapter built in to the base. Very nice if you''re used to trying to balance everything on rocks!

3. The charcoal bit removes most unpleasant flavors. Mind you, if the water really smells horrible to start with, you''re limited with what the charcoal can do.

4. Good instructions, packaging, decent carry bag, little tube of silicon lubricant is a nice touch from a reputable company.

Cons:

1. It can refuse to start pumping. The wonderful piston/valve assemblies that move so much water can ''air-lock'' and stop pumping. And it can take quite a bit of voodoo/fiddling to get it pumping again.

2. Any filter with a ceramic portion needs a silt pre-filter to prevent clogging. This one is no exception. (A silt pre-filter will also greatly extend the life of the pleated paper filter cartridge.)

3. The fragile plastic inlet barb sticks out awkwardly toward the back and is very unprotected. I suspect it''s no accident that the inlet barb is always positioned where it can''t be seen in the product photos and videos.

4. In my experienced opinion, I believe there is a design flaw in the flow path. On the bottom of the paper filter there is an o-ring that separates the contaminated water from the filtered water output. (Which also comes out the bottom.) If that o-ring were nicked, damaged, or missing, contaminated water would leak directly to the output stream. Of course, if the o-ring is kept in perfect shape, this wouldn''t happen...but I tend to think in ''worst-case'' rather than ''best-case''. That''s one of the reasons I filter my water rather than drinking it directly from a stream.

Conclusion;

In short, when it works it works great. It would probably be best for world travelers who could protect the fragile inlet barb and who wouldn''t expose the filter to too much grit or silt.

If you''re wanting to use it backpacking, I''d recommend a simpler, more robust design.

One last thought:

More of a tip really. If you have one of these, you''ll note they protect the inlet barb during shipping with a red plastic cover cap. While you certainly can use that red plastic piece to cap the barb when traveling, it is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT that you NOT try to pump the handle with the red protective cap still on. There are little rubber ''valves'' in the pump that can potentially be damaged while trying to pump too hard against a vacuum.

I''ve had mine out multiple times and so far it''s worked flawlessly. One item to note is that the intake connection sticks out from the side of the unit and is plastic. I would prefer to have had it covered or protected but I just make certain I pack it so that part won''t get stressed.

As others have said, this thing filters water extremely fast. I''ve not had to use it in situations where the water has been highly contaminated or loaded with sediment so I can''t say whether it has issues in those situations. The bottom is sized to screw right onto many water bottles and hydration bladders which saves having to use the outlet tube (included). Since I don''t camp every week, I follow the long-term storage instructions on the unit before packing it away. This involves running 1L of water with either Katadyn''s water purifier tablets or a small amount of bleach through the unit. Next comes removal of the ceramic disc filter to be scrubbed off, and finally removal of the paper/carbon filter to allow it to air dry. After about 24 hours I put some included silicone lubricant on the O-rings and put it back together. I haven''t replaced the activated charcoal yet but it''s not difficult to find and not overly expensive. If the unit is dried properly the charcoal should last quite a while.

The filter parts have tabs which are designed to make certain the unit goes back together properly, but I have to wonder if some of the problems reported are the result of improper re-assembly after cleaning.

I will agree with others that it is a bit bulky (it doesn''t present any problems for my pack) but it''s also pretty light, and compared to some of the more compact units, this one produces a lot more filtered water a lot faster. As with most camping products, the buyer should consider the tradeoffs of ultra-small and lightweight vs. lower expense and more usability.

Good mug for the price! I got it for around half off, and for that price, a definite steal! Easy to grip, nice shape, holds a decent amount, and certainly keeps beverages well insulated! Would definitely buy again. :o)

My review is for great service and super fast delivery! Haven''t used the bottle yet, I hope it last because is super cute! I read in other reviews people telling about the cap doesn''t stay close, the same happen when my sister and my husband try to close it, but I took the bottle, look at the cap and gently close it. They stared at me like what did you do??? I only closed it gently, this is not a cap that closes with a great amount of force. That is the mistery!

Cannondale GT40 Water Bottle Cage Silver Save 13% off

Cannondale GT40 Water Bottle Cage SilverThis is a great cage that works well, bottles slide in and out pretty easily and it doesn''t have any lips that would catch a loose pant leg that easily. Not only that, it looks good. Now for the downside: I bought 3 for an old touring bike but only ended up installing them one after another on my commuter. While commuting in Seattle over the broken pavement probably halves the life of most products, I''ve had three of these cages all fail on me in the same way after around 4-6 months, when my other bikes with their cages from Specialized, etc. all survived just fine. Check out the product images for details on how they failed. There is an Arundel stainless steel cage of a similar design that takes a slightly heavier cage approach that I will try next time; I think the attempts to go lightweight on this cage were its downfall.

Eagle Creek Packable Daypack

Eagle Creek Packable Daypack, BlackI compared this to NEW Ultralight Travel Daypack / Backpack The Perfect Light Weight Daypack For Sightseeing, Hiking, Biking & Travel Super Durable & Comfortable Yet Only 6.5 oz and believe this is the better product. Its capacity is greater than stated, the fabric and construction is durable, and it folds flat and will fit in my pocket.

I owned the predecessor to this packable day pack -saw it several years ago in a well known bookstore in Portland Oregon and bought it on the spot. Since then, I''ve retired all my various messenger bags, backpacks, briefcases, etc. in favor of this extremely lightweight, packable day pack. It has held up well over about 3 years, despite nearly daily use and over-packing. Nothing has really failed -there are a few spots where friction on a sidewalk or wall wore some small holes when it hit the dirt with a full load, but its fairly good quality ripstop nylon, so the holes are small and not a concern.

I bought the new version because a disintegrating chocolate bar left inside in the heat is going to require some major cleaning. The latest version is slightly improved -the back pocket (which is slightly smaller than the old version) now has a straight across zipper. The old pocket had a U-shaped zipper that you had to meticulously close at the risk of having things drop out without notice. The main pocket now has a small rain gusset covering the zipper -looks neater although I doubt whether it makes the bag significantly more waterproof. The fabric is non-waterproofed ripstop nylon, so if you drop it in the lake, it may float for a while, but things inside are going to get wet. The shoulder straps are slightly improved and are now made of more breathable mesh.

The best part is that it weighs nearly nothing and will pack into a small zippered pocket the size of a pack of cigarettes. I personally think that it is ridiculous to spend $70 $100 bucks on a day pack that has 17 pockets, a 1 gallon water bottle pocket, and an ice axe loop just to go to the store or to work. If I''m going 15 miles from the trail head and heading for the alpine meadows, sure, I want a technical day pack or better. But for running around town, this is great.

Minor beef: I ordered this in blue, got black instead. Not worth exchanging, but be aware. Also Amazon may be displaying the wrong picture. This does not look like a duffel, but is a day pack.

Buy Eagle Creek Packable Daypack Now

For years I''ve taken a light 8-oz 12"x16"x6" Wilderness Experience pack with me on trips as a convenient day pack capable of being rolled up and stored in carry-on luggage. This size is just right for carrying an extra camera lens for my SLR, and adding in a light jacket, lunch, and a pocket umbrella. I''ve been unsuccessful in trying to replace my 30-year-old pack until recently, when I discovered the Eagle Creek Packable Daypack. It''s an exact match in size (12"x16"x6") and has a similar 6"x7" single outer pocket for knickknacks like spare SD cards and camera batteries, lens filters, and small camera accessories. What''s better, the Eagle Creek pack only weighs 6 1/2 oz, yet it''s very well made of modestly-heavy black nylon fabric with dual high-quality metal-pull Nylon-tooth zippers. I just returned from 5 weeks in India using it every day while touring temples and museums. I found my old pack (same size) also perfect for trekking in Nepal when the porters had our main luggage. So, for both light day hikes and foreign day trips it''s a great size...it also easily caries my 10" netbook computer if I want to take it on the plane or to a hotel-lobby hotspot. As an added attraction, the pack has really comfortable mesh shoulder straps...a big improvement on my old pack. Note, however, that the fabric is not waterproof...but neither was my old pack. I highly recommend it as a light travel daypack.

I like this backpack and it would be perfect if it had a bottle holder on the side.

I have another similar to it by EagleCreek with the bottle holder and didn''t notice when I ordered this one that it didn''t have it on the side.

These bags last and last and last.

I wonder if I could have one sewn on...maybe when in Asia. It''s much cheaper to go to a tailor there.

I was looking for groomsmen gifts that had a personal touch. I first ordered one bottle to see if I liked it. There was a slight delay due to amazon restricting file types in their E-mail but two pdf files worked just fine. Along with the pdf''s (one with a name in a particular font & the other with a logo) and directions for what I wanted (I gave 2 options not knowing which would work for them). They were able to get my first choice of layout made and sent to me in a timely manner. It looked awesome. The actual bottle I received does not look like the photo, it is more like a thermos. I figured maybe due to the layout of my request is why they used something different than the pic. Regardless, it looked fantastic so I placed an order for 6 more. This time I received an E-mail back asking for my design and I already knew just to send the pdf''s with instructions so that process went quick and smooth. I received my bottles/ thermos'' not long after and couldn''t be more pleased. I know my groomsmen will like them. I searched around for personalized water bottles and most places wanted an order of large quantities and all the same. If you want 1 original or 7 different designs I recommend ordering this product.

This is a good high quality product with only one design flaw I found. The opening in the water bottle is a bit too small for my tastes, and that is the only flaw. It seems to be more durable than others I have found, but the small top prevents me from giving it a 5 star rating and using it while biking.

This is a good shelf item. I would not actually use it as a water bottle because the steel looks like it was salvaged from a jersey junk yard.

Invicta 1310 Men''s Reserve Venom Interchangeable Swiss ETA A07.211 Valgranges Automatic Watch

Invicta 1310 Men''s Reserve Venom Interchangeable Swiss ETA A07.211 Valgranges Automatic WatchI think that functionally, this watch is awesome (it basically has a larger version of the Valjoux movement). It is unbelievably large and the flame fusion glass goes great with the black dial. It is way heavier than you can ever imagine; if you have not seen this watch in person, I don''t think you can be prepared for it''s outstanding size and overall heft without holding it. I had the Russian diver before this and this venom is actually double the weight. I love the the illuminated hour tickers. I''d like to see something similar with a black IP stainless. I got an incredible deal brand new for $919, so look for flexible sellers.

The downside is the bracelet clasp. I think they cheaped out on it and should have used a dual locking buckle. Fortunately the watch does not look cheap, which is why I''m not returning it. If you have a small wrist, it will not fit you.

6/4/12

I''ve had the watch for almost two weeks and it seems to be running 35 seconds ahead of when I first winded it. I changed my review from 4 to 5 stars because I tried on the interchangeable rubber strap and it''s so darn comfortable. Makes a world of a difference when I wear my watch with my suit to work :)

1/6/12

I''ve received more attention for this watch than anything I''ve ever owned. My customers at work ask about it regularly and think it''s a beautiful timepiece. I''ve taken it swimming a few times and had no problems thus far.

Innate Flow Controller

Innate Flow ControllerOK, so I''ve been using this in my innate water bottle for over a year now. It works wonders. However a little caveat. It will hold smells and to a lesser degree, flavors. I put beer in my water bottle and even after hot water and soap, I could smell the beer when I drank from my bottle. Same thing happened when I put watermelon juice in my water bottle. So just use it with water and you shouldn''t have the issue.

I gave it 5 stars because this is after all a water bottle flow controller, not a beer bottle flow controller, so my smell and taste observations are of no consequence. Works great to keep the water from splashing all over me when driving or hiking or whenever really.

I love my Innate water bottle and the flow controller really helps to not spill when getting a drink. Some people say it is hard to put in but I have no problems just hold it between your thumb and index finger and bend it a little bit to get it in there just right.

Buy Innate Flow Controller Now

The one major drawback of the Innate V2 water bottles is the huge lid. It''s great for fitting ice in if you like your water cold like me, but not so good for drinking on the move. This little flow controller solves that problem perfectly!

However, it creates two more minor challanges. You of course can''t put ice in with the flow controller on. It''s hard to even get water in unless you have a small stream of water and precision aim. And if you pop it out to fill, it tends to be a pain to get it back in just right without pushing it in too far. It always seems to take me a couple tries to get it in just right.

Overall, it''s better than wearing my water but I do wish it was a little easier to put back in place, or perhaps just a little bigger to allow easier filling in place.

I suppose this would help if you put ice in your water bottle which is easy to do with such a wide mouth. However, I don''t use ice, so this controller proved pointless for me.
