Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel Water Bottle Shoulder Sling (27-Ounce Bottles)
Just received the Klean Kanteen shoulder sling for $5.50 w/ free 2 day shipping. Despite many negative reviews, I figured how bad could it be for the money? It came in the same box as the Klean Kanteen 27 ounce bottle I had also ordered, and both were in protective poly bags. With trepidation I started the alleged horrific process of placing the bottle in the sling. I don''t know what is different about the sling I got, but after carefully lining it up with the bottom of the bottle, I simply pulled evenly on the straps and it slipped right over the bottle! It is a snug fit, but that is good. It won''t slip out on the trail, and since it is hanging at your side, you don''t need to take it out of the sling to drink, just unscrew the cap and go for it. The cap threads on easily,and has a soft(neoprene?) gasket to insure a good seal. The bottle is sturdy yet light, and with a very attractive finish(I chose the black), and the best thing is no more crappy plastic taste! Both the bottle and the sling are five stars as far as I am concerned, and I am going to order another bottle and sling in the 40 ounce size.

This product was delivered promptly. Although it was initially difficult to insert the bottle in the strap holder, it definitely made it easier to carry over the shoulder while walking about.I love this sling. It works great. I love stainless steel bottles but I like to rinse them in hot water between uses and stainless steel is a great conductor and it would burn my hand but this sling is just thick enough to protect my hand from the heat while holding it. It also keeps my hand from freezing when I fill it up with ice cubes and water. Many people probably buy stainless steel bottles but get turned off by freezing hands...I think all stainless steel bottles should come with a sling like this or some type of sleeve. I put this sling over my shoulder when walking so I can drink easily without slowing down--so much easier than having to un-clip a bottle from a belt loop. It was a tight fit but I didn''t have trouble getting it on, once I got it on, I don''t take it off very often--there''s no need to since I don''t put it in the dishwasher. Great price too.Want Klean Kanteen Stainless Steel Water Bottle Shoulder Sling (27-Ounce Bottles) Discount?
This shoulder piece does do the job of holding the kanteen in something that you can carry over your shoulder, but it''s such a tight fit getting the bottle into it that it''s aggravating. If you''re in a hurry to go, forget it -you''ll have to have time to fuss with getting it together.
Easy Sipper Nalgene Water Bottle Accessory (Red)
If you have the wide mouth nalgene and you''ve tried drinking out of it in the car while someone else is driving and trying to make you spill. Then you HAVE to have this. The only downside to it is that the ice will block the hole. But boo hoo. Great product.
Definitely a requirement if you''re going to use a Nalgene. Those things are ridiculous. :D
New Wave Enviro Stainless Steel 20 oz Bottle Graphic (1 Bottle)
This bottle had everything I was looking for: stainless (I don''t like the taste of aluminum or most plastics), fits ice cubes through the wide opening, has a sipper valve without a straw that isn''t constantly exposed because it flips down to stay sanitary, and it doesn''t leak!! The carrying handle and nice graphic are a bonus. A slightly wider mouth and it would be easier to fill with ice.
Lezyne CNC Al Bottle Cage Save 33% off
I''m going to be honest, I bought these cages because they''re purrty. Almost all of the "high end" water bottle cages that you see these days are made from carbon fiber. I wanted a set of aluminum cages that echoed my proud stance to choose an aluminum bike over a carbon fiber one, and I wanted cages that were just as beautiful as the bike. The bike is a Cannondale Caad10, by the way.The cages themselves are beautifully machined and attached with no problems to the bike. The black finish is fairly glossy and there were no chips or scratches upon receipt. As far as how they perform, what can I say? They hold my water bottles just fine, and there is no rattling of the cage against the frame of the bike. They seem to be a bit stiffer than a standard metal water bottle cage as far as insertion and extraction of the water bottle is concerned, but it is not too problematic.
As noted above, buying these fancy cages was more of a cosmetic consideration than a performance oriented one. My bike is white with black lettering and some very dark blue on the rear seatstays. I bought the black cages to offset the white frame and match with the black handlebar tape and black saddle. I almost pulled the trigger on the white ones with black Lezyne lettering, and I''m still kind of regretting that I didn''t purchase those in lieu of the black ones, just to see how it changed the look of the bike. I still might do it.
The cages are pricey, especially since they are equivalent in price to some of the carbon cages out there, but they are quality, and I can''t imagine one ever breaking. You could probably say the same about a three dollar metal bottle cage as well. It is not a rational decision purchasing cages such as these, but if you are like me, many of your bicycle and bicycling related purchases will not be rational decisions. These were purchased for vanity''s sake, pure and simple. Taken in that context, they have more than satisfied this customer.

Deuter Streamer Z Valve Kit Hydration Pack
I bought this to replace my original bite valve which developed a hole where you bite it. This bite valve has been improved in that it:It twists to shut off, no more annoying dripping
-The material seems to be a little thicker, maybe it won''t develop the same hole where you bite it as quickly
It comes with a little cover to keep dirt from accumlating on the bite valve, I don''t really know how well this works or if it''s worth the extra weight.
All in all this bite valve seems to be much more functional and built better but only time will tell how it holds up.
Camelbak Delaney Fit Hydration WaistPack with Podium Bottle Save 7% off
I recently purchased the Camelback Delaney Fit Hydration WaistPack and have found it difficult to use. The 24 oz bottle when filled bounces with the running stride, and doesn''t stay in place. I tried tightening the belt but the problem remains. It''s less of an issue if I substitute the 24 oz for a 16 oz bottle. Solution....I carry the bottle in my hand until it''s half empty and then place it in the holder. This is not my preference and I would not recommend this product.

This is really comfortable on, though I do have to tighten it often as I run. Easy to tighten, though. I have used this half a dozen times. The main thing I notice is that mesh near the zipper does look like it could fray at any minute. Time will tell.Read Best Reviews of Camelbak Delaney Fit Hydration WaistPack with Podium Bottle Here

Olicamp Space Saver Cup
The Olicamp Space Saver isn''t a bulletproof, titanium cooking tool, but it is very affordable and adequate to its intended purpose.The cup will hold 16 oz. of liquid with enough headroom to comfortably boil that amount. This is exactly the amount of boiling water required for a standard Mountain House 2 serving, freeze dried entree packet. Measurements from 4 to 16 oz. are embossed on the side of the cup, which is convenient.
The cup itself is strong enough to hold up to normal use, but the metal has some give. If you step on it by accident, you''ll probably be short a container. The handles are a thick wire. They don''t feel particularly sturdy at first, but when I tested the cup on a gas stove (see customer image), I was surprised to find that they work quite well. They are rigid enough to safely support 16 oz. of hot liquid, and thin enough to remain mostly cool to the touch. I could actually pour the liquid into another container without spilling a drop and without a potholder of any sort, an advantage which I had not anticipated.
A 32 oz. Nalgene bottle nests tightly into the cup (the cup is easily removed, but will not easily fall off). I was able to fit the bottle with the cup into the water bottle pouch on an old military backpack with a little care. Any pouch that''s made for a 32 oz. Nalgene will most likely also accept the cup.
I''m satisfied with the purchase so far.
Pro:
-Very sturdy
-Nalgene nests perfectly
-Folding arms are sturdy and just long enough to make for a good handle
-The ounce gradations on the side can be seen both inside and outside the cup, so it''s great for cooking
Cons:
-Heavy, but I guess that''s a price you pay for having a durable cup that you can cook with
-The arms have a tendency to flop out, but since they can be taken off very easily, it''s also very easy to bend them to make the arms hold their place a little more firmly.
Not sure if this would work, but maybe in the future Olicamp could magnetize the ends of the fold out arms so that they would stay folded in more readily?
Overall a great product. In my mind, four out of five stars is a great rating. Very few products are deserving of 5/5.
Buy Olicamp Space Saver Cup Now
Sells for about $10 at most camping/hunting stores (BassPro, Dick''s, REI, etc).(see customer images)
I use this with a recycled tomato can for my camp stove. The stove itself is a Pepsi can stove (google search it for many different plans). The empty tomato can serves as a windscreen and pot stand. Four holes punched with a can opener allow air flow at the bottom. The cup sits on a pair of tent stakes. It takes 30mL of denatured alcohol and six minutes to boil 500mL of water. I''ve neglected to time how long it will keep the water boiling, but I''d guess another 6-7 minutes. YMMV depending on the type of alcohol stove you have.

Solid quality polished stainless, made in India. Holds 16oz with about 1/2 inch remaining till the top. No lid, unfortunately. Weighs a hefty 165g / 5.8 oz. A single walled titanium cup of about the same size (like a Snow Peak 600) would weigh less than half this much, but it would cost three times more. Exterior dimensions including the folded-in arms: height 9cm x width 10.5cm. Interior dimensions if you want to make sure your water bottle fits inside: ~9cm height x 9.3cm width. The volume markings on the side are in ounces only, no metric measurements. The lines and numbers are stamped into the metal, so they are visible from the inside as well. This makes them more useful when filling, but it''s also annoying for cleanup -food can get caught in the little concave markings inside the cup.---------
Update: I haven''t seen it offered on Amazon, but if you search elsewhere you may be able to find an "Olicamp Space Saver Aluminum" cup. It''s identical to this one except:
The handles are riveted instead of welded, making it slightly harder to clean because the rivets penetrate to the inside.
Because it''s aluminum, the cup only weighs 98g (3.5oz), much lighter than this one.
Despite the lighter weight, it holds 4oz more (20 oz total) with room to spare. The extra capacity comes from additional height; it''s still the width of a Nalgene.
If you want to save weight and if cleanup isn''t a big concern because you''ll mostly be boiling water, this could be a great lightweight alternative. Assuming you''re OK with aluminum.

NCAA Oregon Ducks Fairway Stand Golf Bag Save 15% off
I had been looking for an Oregon golf bag for quite some time. The ones that were in my price range I felt were pretty cheaply made. The ones I liked were in the $200 price range. When I came across this bag it seemed to have everything that I wanted: grab handle by the club heads, true UofO green and yellow, stand, and 14 separate club holes. The cheapest I was able to find it online was $179.99 but when I looked on Amazon.com it was $129.99 so I snapped it up. Using my Prime membership it go 2-day shipping for free on a promo and when it came it was exactly as I had hoped. This is a great bag and shows my school pride just the way I wanted to.Save 15% off
Stainless Steel Water Bottle Canteen 25oz.
I hydrate alot. Like; ALOT. If I''m hiking, biking or otherwise sporting, I hydrate even more. I got these guys to be my go everywhere water receptacles and they have done well. Taken beatings of various sorts (falls, tosses after a bad put or two...) and the stickers I slap on them wear off, but the bottles press on. Good SS bottles. Hydration, Gooooood.
Minoura Rear Mount Saddle-Rail Bracket for One Cage
I''m sure this works but the details on the item by the manufacturer and the dealer/saler are very vauge and thus this rear mount only works with saddles that are short/stout in the back such as the adamo or the like. if the rear of the saddle is long or the rails are short this mount will not work, you water bottle will get stuck in & very difficult to get out.... very dangerous when riding....have yet to return, because I''ll probably switch my road saddle with my track saddle for the time being....or something.
