Sigg Dynamic Touch Water Bottle Save 4% off
So, the bottle arrived damaged, with a thumb sized dent on the word "SIGG." Make sure you inspect the bottle before you wash, fill, and use. Now, more about the bottle: The design looks pretty cool, with a textured exterior and standard looking SIGG interior. It''s advertised as "Swiss made," but that no longer means it''s exactly made. I noticed some difficulty sucking water out of the bottle, so I pulled it apart (through the "clean" setting). What I found was a manufactured seal that wasn''t punched exactly the way it should have been, reducing water flow by about a third. After taking an utility knife to the seal to match the seal to the hole, flow improved.So, what do I think overall? "Meh." The money spent is about average for "higher end" metal bottles. The "technology" is a good concept for cleaning, but doesn''t include the capability of a folding straw (see Camelbak''s bottles). I''ll follow up when I''ve used it on my bicycle bottle cage.
Trikke T78 Air Deluxe (EA)
I have been looking for something different, something fun, but also something that gives a great full-body work-out. I found it all in the Trikke, especially the T-78 Deluxe with its redesigned handlebars, all air tires, sporty great looks, and a nice color.I have had the Trikke for one week and I have used it every night it is very addicting. It is not unusual for me to ride for several hours.
There definitely is a learning curve. I spent the first 2 nights riding in front of my house trying to get the movements right to make it go. Although not hard to make it roll, there is some practice needed to make it go fast and fluid. However, regardless of my experience level, I still got a work-out.
The video is of me on Day 3 still learning and practicing. Since then my abilities have greatly increased and I am now riding all over the city and picking up real good speed on the flats. Uphill is still a little hard, but getting easier.
I highly recommend the Trikke, especially the T78 Deluxe model. In my area, I must be either the only one or one of the few that owns a Trikke. As I ride around the city I consistently hear, "Nice Scooter", "What is That?", "That''s Cool", "Can I ride It?", "Does That Really Work?!"I just keep carving on as people stare in awe. Although it looks very graceful and natural once you get the hang of it, it is one great work-out. When I am done riding, I am always drenched in sweat, but it was fun.
So if, like me, you hate the back and butt pain of bike-riding, don''t like the impact of jogging or running, and want something different that is also fun... well the Trikke is the real deal and it really works.
As to the delivery, I ordered through Amazon on the 26th and the distributor had it delivered to me on the 29th as a free standard delivery. So for me, Lifestyle Sports really delivered a great product and had it to me very quickly.
I purchased this one, got it out of the box and noted the significance in high quality. It came on time and I put it together in 10-min. I am 46 with bad knees and can not run anymore so this is one way I can keep up with my wife (a marathon runner) without provoking knee surgery. The riding motion is a bit awkward, similar to downhill snow skiing but works the core, legs and arms. Once you get use to it (10-15 min), its a lot fun. I look forward to short breaks where I can take it out (even for 5-min) and will be scootering with my kids and doing a longer ride this weekend. The T78-Deluxe (steel version) is only 2-lbs heavier than the T8-Air (aluminum) (25 vs 23 lbs), so at my level it is a better value. I would definitely buy this again.
Buy Trikke T78 Air Deluxe (EA) Now
Where to begin. OMG, I ordered my trikke T78 Deluxe a Monday, it was delivered on Friday that same week. Thank you Amazon for your prompt shipping.All I had to do was snap on the front wheel, tighten a bolt. Then put on the handlebars (for that I did need some help, ''cause the instructions were for a model with different handlebars than the T78 Deluxe and I had never put handlebars previously on anything...ever). A call to Trikke Tech 15 minutes before their closing time, got me the clarifiction I needed. The handlebars were installed and the young man giving me tech support and I got off the phone with time to spare and he could leave work on time. Thank you Trikke Tech for helping this woman.
Next I had to run over to a bicycle shop to get air in my tires, I did not have a tire pump with a pressure guage.
I had this little gizmo for 2 full days before I got a chance to take it out for a test drive. The first time I had it out to ride it, I stood on it for a full 35 minutes unable to get it to move. I might add I was stubbornly refusing to "kick off". Here is a hint: DO NOT start out by trying to learn on an incline. Either find yourself a long,gentle downhill slope or a flat surface.
Once I change locations, wah lah and eureka! With only about 20 minutes left I got to have some, allbeit slow-going, fun. But I discovered a "sweet spot" in creating forward momentum.
I got to truly ride it for a bit more than an hour the following day.....what a great work out.....and I was exhilerated, hooked, and tired. It was great!
The third ride I only had about 10 minutes...then two days of close to 20 minutes to ride. None of these were as good as the 2nd time I got to ride it.
Now today my 5th ride.....I had 40 minutes. It was magic. I was able to go up some hills and all around my neighborhood (of course, strategically planning it so I was not going uphill the whole way). I rode for about 4 miles.
This is such a hoot. I would heartily recommend the T78 Deluxe. Do your research, get a trikke that is size appropriate for you, be determined that if someone else can ride one of these, so can you! If you get a trikke and need assistance in getting it moving, there''s all kinds of help online. If you know someone who rides one, it may help you get going faster than I did if you can at least watch them ride for a bit.
The 3-wheeled platform gives the rider stability, the rubber tires are good for traction and give a soft ride. I am so glad I got a model with rubber tires!
I was very tentative and thought about making this purchase for about a month or so before I bit the bullet. It has been a great purchase for me.
I researched several other brands, I liked the way this company makes their 3-wheeled cambering vehicles.
If you get one, I hope to see your review here, too. I look forward to reading about how much fun you are having on your trikke.

I can not give a review on the Trikke I first ordered because I never received it!One of the things the seller should have said is that they did not have the Trikke they were advertising! After I ordered the Trikke Pro Therapy then ordered it from another company. I waited a month for the Trikke after I was told it had been shipped, then I found out it never was shipped. Pro Therapy did not provide Amazon or I with a tracking number so we could track it. I have checked and see they are still allowed to advertise the same Trikke for sale. I''m so glad I ordered through Amazon because they took care of this problem for me.
I ordered my second Trikke from another company and received it in four days. The second Trikke I ordered was easy to put together but learning to ride it is a bit harder. Every day gets better. It is not an item you can take out of the box and ride the first day like you see in the video provided. It reminds me of trying to learn to ride a two wheel bike for the very first time. It takes lots of practice and you must be patient... Be the first in your area to have one so you can help others.. I wish I had someone near to help me. I practiced after dark so no one could see me! Don''t give up the first day!
Want Trikke T78 Air Deluxe (EA) Discount?
Love my Trikke. It''s in the garage ready to go when I am and much easier to throw in the car than a bike. Personally I think it''s more fun. I skipped the poly wheels and ordered all air. Buy a little push air pump so you''re ready when it arrives as tires need air. I happen to live where there are a few hills which is great fun. I look at walking it back up the hills as great exercise too. If you are a "closet case" grocery cart rider which I still am at 64! you''ll love this.

New Wave Enviro Stainless Steel Water Bottle (12-Ounces Sippy Cap)

Bell H1 Water Bottle and Cage Save 17% off
I received this bottle as a gift to be used while cycling. I liked the look and it felt light enough. Then, without really trying it out, I bought another . . . oops. The cap is totally non-functional (remember, I have two of these and they''re both identical in their inability to deliver a decent flow of water) as I''m either sucking more air than water or I have to take small sucks then allow for air to enter the bottle so I can take another. Also, in this day and age, I''m not sure what "food grade" metal is (it''s definitely not stainless steel), even though, I''m sure, some government official has deemed this particular kind of metal as being OK for food. If you enjoy fighting for a drink of water then by all means purchase one of these, otherwise, keep looking,

Neff Men''s NF0206-cyan Interchanable Face Adjustable Silicon Band Watch Save 25% off
This is a nice quality watch but it is for a very large adult. I bought it for my grandson and it is unusable even if I would adjust the band. The band is adjustable it can be made smaller but in order to do so, you have to cut the band. Then you cannot make it larger later it you want to. The product description does not give enough information to make an intelligent decision.
Buy Neff Men''s NF0206-cyan Interchanable Face Adjustable Silicon Band Watch Now
Since this watch is so cheap, you shouldn''t expect any high end watch materials.The front glass is not scratch proof, but you shouldn''t expect a watch at this price to be so.
A simple quartz movement powers this watch. The lack of hour markers may prove a slight bit of annoyance for those that like to take a quick glance at their watches, but this watch isn''t designed for that.
This watch is designed purely for looks.
What is interesting is that the actual watch casing is removable from the strap. This means that if you purchase any other colored versions of this watch, you could swap out the bands and mix up the colors.
The silicone band is adjustable, but it is designed to be cut, so it cannot be extended once it is shortened. Make sure to cut one link at a time to avoid over tightening the band. This might prove to be the most annoying part of this watch.
For the right audience, this is a fantastic watch at its low price point.
Makes an excellent gift!

Infinity DuKJug BPA-Free Backcountry Polypropylene Water Bottle
I bought this water bottle because I liked the color and sleek design. I also liked that the lid is connected to the base by a string, not by a flimsy piece of plastic that makes the lid bounce all over the place. Water tastes great, no plasticky aftertaste.But the fatal flaw with this bottle is the lid. It cracks, rendering the entire bottle useless. This has happened to me twice, on two separate occasions, with two different lids. Didn''t drop it, didn''t smash it, didn''t load 50 pounds of gear on it. It just cracked. The fact that it happened twice suggests some sort of design or production defect.
Customer service is a mixed bag. First time it cracked, I contacted the company and they kindly sent me a replacement lid at no charge. Second time I contacted the company, no response. So now I''m stuck with a bottle with a cracked lid.
Overall, a great-looking bottle a sleek and unique design. But a bottle needs a sturdy lid, and this lid sucks, rendering the entire bottle useless. Sorry, GSI!
* It holds 32 oz that''s a pretty good amount.
* Has a wide mouth opening for easy/quick pouring and filling.
* Has an optional/removeable insert in the wide mouth so you can take small sips or use a straw.
* Has a rubber grip that allows you to remove it, run a couple yards of duct tape around the bottle and put the rubber grip back. Very handy for when you need a foot or of duct tape on the trail or in camp!
* Most importantly a screw on top. Why''s that important? ''Cause the water bottles with the flip up tops tend to ''flip up'' in the storage area in my van on the way to camping trips and then we get water everywhere!
* Good price I think I got mine for $8
* It''s transparent so you have some idea of what''s in it and how much you have left.
* Well marked measuring in both English and metric
I didn''t notice any checmical tastes or smells as reported by the previous reviewer.

This is clearly a case of form over function.I purchased this bottle and originally loved it. It is a nice stainless steel and the design was perfect for my son who loves anything with wheels. He loved this water bottle at first sight too, but for some reason, did not drink much water when we took it out with us. I didn''t really understand why he never seemed to want to drink from it until I actually tried it myself. When I drank out of that cap, I got more air than water! It was appalling! No wonder this water bottle always came home still full and my son always declined to drink when I offered it to him. He couldn''t get much water out, which can be very frustrating. Plus, he is probably swallowing air instead and then has gas cramps later in the evening.
The other problem that I noticed right off the bat was that the blue cap that is meant to keep the top sanitary when not in use hits my son in the face when he is trying to drink from it. That would have been excusable and easily remedied by removing it but the water flow issue is not acceptable. The sippy cap also leaks. Crocodile creek could solve all this by offering alternative caps that are better designed. I would be willing to buy a replacement cap for this bottle if I knew it worked. For a while we were simply removing the whole thing and just having him drink straight from the bottle and not through the sipping mechanism. But that requires me to help my son take the cap off since he can''t do it himself. This means I can''t send him to preschool with this bottle because he can''t use it independently.
Bottom line, do yourself and your child a favor and get him a 12 oz. klean kanteen with either the sports cap 2.0 or regular poly loop or flat cap. The sports cap has great flow and the other caps have excellent non-leaking seals. You can decide which is most important to you. I have both types of caps depending on whether the bottle is traveling on the outside or inside of a bag and whether he is taking it to preschool. It''s nice to have options without having to buy a new bottle. Plus, the opening of the bottle is larger on the klean kanteen compared to the crocodile creek, which means it''s much easier to fill and get ice cubes into.

After buying adult-size water bottles for my daughter & myself, my 2-year-old constantly wanted ours instead of his sippy cup, so I gave this a try. He LOVES the vehicle pictures! And he loves having his own "big-kid" water bottle like Mama & big sis! The bottle works fine & is not a problem to clean w/ a bottle brush. It is not spill-proof, so it''s quite a change from the sippy cup, but that''s just part of the growing up process. I''ve tried his water a few times (we''ve only put water in it) and it does not seem to leave a metalic taste, as some do. We took the cap off, as it was difficult for him to use & just seem to get in the way, but that''s no big deal when we mostly use it at home. When I want it closed, I just make sure the spout is closed all the way. I do like it a lot & am thinking about buy a few more for gifts.Save 10% off
Minoura Strap-on Bottle Cage Mount (22.2mm to 35mm Tubes)
This thing is a joke. All I can think of is whoever devised the connection must be sadistic.I read the reviews and saw what a pain someone had with it. Ordered it anyway. Mine came without the spacer and in a package that looked repacked. I had to use some spacer material I had on hand, and even then it wouldn''t snug properly. Blindly screwing a screw through two holes, a bent, loose piece of metal, and then through a final nut is pathetic engineering. And it never did fit tight.

I searched FOREVER for something to allow me to put a water bottle cage on my bike. My bike is a racer from the 80''s so it didn''t have the little nuts braised on. No bike shops had anything close to this. I did not want it to go on my handlebars or on my seat post, which there are plenty out there for that. After looking for months I found this (and even on Amazon it took me a while to find it)... this is really good quality and does the job very well! It would be nice if it wouldn''t project the cage out so far, but it allowed me to have a water bottle on my bike so I don''t really care, and there is no way around it anyway.I recommend it highly!

Innate Flip Top Lid
I took a chance and ordered these to replace the HumanGear caps on my 32 oz Nalgene bottle. They fit perfectly! They also have little silicone stoppers that can be removed to increase liquid flow in the bottle. And I got the blue ones to match my bottle.I''m VERY satisfied with this purchase, and will be buying more.
At first it didn''t seem like it would thread on, and was really loose, but as I screwed it on it straightened out, and made a really nice seal once it was tightened all the way. It can be opened with one hand, which is wonderful after you have been using "The Lid" that comes standard with the Guyot bottles. And the price really can''t be beat. It may not work for everyone, but for those desperate for a way to use their bottle without having to unscrew a massive lid everytime they want a drink, this is a good solution.This review is focused on the innate flip top lid. The little white silicon air valve falls out the bottom and gets lost or possibly swallowed. Innate must have figured this out because, the Pop top lid has a much larger valve, fits better, and a smaller hole which would decrease the possibility of ingestion. This lid has a better feel than the pop top when drinking so it may be worth the risk. Due to the small part neither lid is recommended for small children.
Read Best Reviews of Innate Flip Top Lid Here
I''ve been obsessing about finding a perfect water bottle, but most of them just have crappy lids. I don''t want a straw, and I don''t want to fumble around with a screw-off lid, and the few with flip-tops are cheap, plasticky and overly complicated. Then I found the Innate lid and it''s almost perfect. The plastic is much higher quality than any other lid. The flip mechanism is sturdy and simple. There''s no latch, but it seems well sealed -if I shake it upside down there''s no leaks. Still, I''m wary of leaving it rolling around inside a pack or gym bag. My only other reservation is the little air valve makes an annoying chirping sound when I drink. Overall I''m happy with it though. I have one on a 32oz Nalgene bottle and another on a 24oz Camelback bottle.Want Innate Flip Top Lid Discount?

I got this for my 7 year old boy, he plays golf often, and his bag was getting fuller and heavier. I found the cart to be of nice quality, very easy to assemble; it also stores easily as the bottom plastic lip folds up and the wheals fold in with a simple clever mechanism. My son weighs 45 lb, so he is on the smaller side, so he finds the cart a bit awkward, but this should get better by next summer as he puts on a few pounds and grows a bit.

This canteen is very well designed. The welding points are solid, the silicone and cap seal perfect every time I have used it. I have not had any metal taste since I started using it and hopefully never will. The lanyard they supplied is decent but I replaced the rings with better rings and para cord. My one complaint is that I do not believe this canteen is made of steel. A rare earth magnet would not "grab" on to the canteen. Now the canteen works perfect but the description does say steel. Is there another way to check if it is steel other than using magnets?Well whether or not it is made of steel, the canteen works very well and I would recommend it for your BOB or for backpacking.
UPDATE: Traded this out for a Stanley Stainless Steel Utility Bottle that holds the same volume. Stands up on it''s own. Easy to clean with foliage or bottle brush. You can boil water easily with it on a wood stove or directly on a fire (with cap off of course). Liked the canteen but isn''t what I was looking for.
