Platypus Platy Holster

Platypus PlusBottle Holster, Black, 1 LiterI was looking for a water container to take hiking with me that was BPA free, and would not taste like plastic. This fit the bill perfectly, and the holster keeps the water cold for a long time. It is lighter than any hard sided bottle, without the plastic taste that the Camelback''s have.

Boy was I surprised when my holster arrived and there was a 1 Liter bottle included, the description says Platypus PlusBottle Holster Black, 1 Liter, I say the bottle in the holster but did not count on it being included at this price. I hike 40 to 45 miles a week and this is the lightest and most space saving solution to hydration for short day hikes. The taste is of water and nothing else, no bottle taste at all. I have washed this Holster and it comes out like new. Fantastic product. Thanks

this holster is great! it compresses to a thin layer when not used for easy storage. it looks very durable and is really reinforced to protect sharp edges from poking the soft bottle. on top of all that, it looks good, and should last for quite a while. the fit is perfect. using a platypus bottle without this holster feels like something is missing for me now.

This product was exactly what I wanted. It''s very flexible and folds flat for packing. It holds a good quantity of water. I lost an earlier model after over 20 years, and this replacement is at least as good, and not as easy to lose. The order was filled accurately and promptly. I would use this supplier again.

A little smelly

does exactly what it says.

Don''t really need it, since the compartment on my daily bag insulates just fine and it isn''t use-able with all platy variations.

bkr® bottle : bubbly glass water bottle + soft silicone sleeve

bkr Bottle : Glass Water Bottle + Silicone SleeveI LOVE my BKR! Everything tastes so much better out of glass than it does from plastic. Also, this is the easiest water bottle to wash. Simply toss it in the top rack of your dishwasher, and you don''t even have to take the sleeve off.

I constantly receive compliments on my BKR. They double as an accessory!

On another note: If you are to ever have any difficulty with your BKR, the company''s customer service is exquisite! I''ll vouch for this company any day.

bkr is by far the best water bottle I''ve ever owned. The bright colors are just the beginning-bkr is bpa-free, light enough to carry around in your purse, and has one of the easiest spouts to drink from even while exercising. I never leave home without my Julep!

It''s really a cute bottle, but I guess it''s made for cold water and beverages only. I purchased it to drink hot water, however, the skin release really strong chemical smell every time I pour hot water in it. I just couldn''t stand the smell every time I drink hot water, so I had to return it. I bought Lifefactory water bottle, which works better for hot water. If you don''t think you will use it for hot beverages, I think this product would work great. Hope it helps.

I am an avid water drinker and have tried many different water bottles over the years, and I can confidently say that my BKR water bottles are the BEST! IT''s easy to clean (dishwasher safe) and so stylish. The rubber sleeve makes it comfortable to hold, and very safe (I drop it frequently and it has never broken).

I love my pool bkr and take it with me everywhere! I''ve had it for about a year now, and I throw it in my purse, in my diaper bag, etc. Even though it is glass it is so sturdy. And, the bottle is so cute! I get compliments on it wherever I go. The best thing about it though is that the water tastes like ... water. I''ve owned about 5 different Siggs and had a ton of plastic bottles over the years and could never get over how the water would taste like metal or plastic, depending on the bottle. This is not an issue with my bkr. In fact, I love my bkr so much that I bought 20 last year to give as Christmas gifts to my family and friends. They all love it too.

Pros:

1. BPA free

2. Totally dishwasher safe I throw the entire bottle (with the sleeve still on) in the dishwasher

3. The most stylish bottle on the market

4. Opening is small so I''m not spilling water all over myself when I''m drinking on the go

5. Doesn''t leak

6. No tinny or plastic-y taste like you would have in a stainless steel or plastic bottle

7. Cap screws on easily and acts as a carry handle

Cons

NONE!

As you can see, I''m totally obsessed. Thinking about getting the canary color next. I want all of them!

I Dream Of Jeannie Bottle

I Dream of Jeannie BottleThis item is advertised as a replica of the I dream of Jeannie bottle from the series of the same name. It''s an inflatible item as stated by the vendor. The problem is it''s very difficult to inflate and even when you do (and it takes a long time) it is not a "replica" of the I dream of Jeannie Bottle. It''s described in a mis-leading matter and after this I found a real replica and it''s night and day. This one I deflated but that sure didn''t take long.

I feel it''s also a high price between the tag price and shipping for what it is. It looks like something you''d float in a pool.

I was very disappointed in this item. I thought it was a "bottle" and it is "just a balloon." If you can find a REAL Genie Bottle, I sure would be interested in looking at it.

I purchased this as an accessory for my 10 yr niece, Rayna, who was "Jeannie" for Halloween. The bottle was adorable and so was Jeannie. Great buy/Happy Jeannie

The bottle LOOKS pretty..but it was very flimsy. It was for a Halloween costume..so it served its purpose..but I wouldn''t waste my money on it again if I had the choice.

Nalgene Draft Hydration Pack (Black/Gray) Save 15% off

Nalgene Draft Hydration PackNalgene makes the best hydration pack bladder on the market... and the worst backpack. The bite valve, wide water tube, magnetic clip and taste-free bladder are unmatched in the market. I had to return this product though because the pack absolutely sucked. The zipper died on day 2, and a seam separated on day 5. Blah.

XLAB Sonic Nut Inflation Holder (Silver) Save 16% off

XLAB Sonic Nut Inflation HolderI bought this expecting an inflation holder and got an INFLATION HOLDER!! Basically, you screw two co2 canisters into it, and screw your co2 inflator onto it, then use the included bolts to attach it to your X-lab turbo wing, through the little hole. You can angle it however you like. Great idea to stop co2 rattling around or falling out over bumps.

This completed my attachments to my carbon sonic wing. It''s placement on the wing will give extra room in my tire bag for additional items.

Zefal Gizmo Bicycle Bottle Cage Mounting Bracket (Large)

Zefal Gizmo Bicycle Bottle Cage Mounting BracketI bought this and the Elite VIP cage mount to compare on my vintage folding bike. Having ridden both, I stuck with the Elite; it holds tighter. If you''re in the market you won''t have to worry about sizing with the VIP either. The Gizmo would probably work just as well if you put something underneath the clamp for added friction. And just so you know they come two to a package.

The Zefal Gizmo is an esthetic and non-corrosive way to replace the old corroded cage clamps on my vintage 531 steel steed or any bike without brazed-on bottle mounts.

First, make sure you''ve purchased the correct size/diameter. I purchased a Medium for 1 to 1 1/8" tube. Cages with 2mm thin metal bases (where the hex bolts attach) like Blackburn Competition or Generic/Delta works well but ONE of the large 2 mm semi-circular TABS on the top of EACH plastic base needs to be cut off so the top of the cage base is about even with the top of the remaining tabs and the included hex bolts can then reach and engage the nut threads more completely and without overextending on to the frame.

To cut off the tabs: Scribe a line near the base of the tabs with hobby knife then cut the tabs with a hobby razor saw; or just grind it down with a rotary tool. Main point is to remove the tab/tabs that''s blocking the cage base and preventing the hex bolt from reaching the nut at the bottom for thicker cage bases. The bottom nut is secured in the slot formed by the ends of the band.

For cages with bases thicker than 2mm all four tabs may need to be cut out and may require a longer hex bolt. The four tabs on top of the plastic base are there for a reason (cover the sides of the cage base) but the instructions is just a simple picture without showing how to adapt to different thickness of cage bases.

Zefal could have designed this Gizmo better with included adapters to fit any cage base without having buyers to do the extra modifications. Once fitted and properly tightened on the bike frame, the Gizmo holds the cage snugly and securely and doesn''t seem to be affected by minor road bumps.

Check out my posted pics of modified Gizmo.

Good luck!

This a great mount. It is a little difficult to attach but once on it fits nice and secure. It is easily adjustable and looks great.

I''ve read in a couple reviews that some manual adjustment with a roto-tool is needed to make these fit. Well nuts to that. I suppose if I were going to get the toolkit out, I ought to just braze some mounts onto the bike myself.

Anyway, these don''t fit any of the cages that I own, at least not without taking a chunk out of the mount, the cage or both. Even if I were so inclined to do that, these things look so goofy with their 1-in standoffs, I couldn''t see mounting this to a bike with a straight face.

Skip this one.

I cannot get the included bolts to mount even the thinnest water bottle cage. Maybe there is some specially-designed cage it is suitable for? If so, it sure would be nice to have instructions to that effect.

FuelBelt Race Number Attachment

FuelBelt Race Number Attachment Belt LoopI had never used a race number attachment before so I was confused on how I would get it to work. But I was able to figure it out in 5 seconds and I didn''t have to attach pins to my shirt or shorts like other runners did.

These are perfect race clips to add on to your belt for a run. They weigh next to nothing and they work as advertised. Definitely worth the purchase.

Not much to say easy to use, easy to put on, bib stays low and out of the way. I tend to wipe my hands off on the front of my shirt while running and I don''t want the bib there. This works great.

These handy little gadgets do an excellent job of minding the race bib and saving your shirt or shorts. The reflectivity is a nice touch to aid in night visibility. No trouble attaching or removing the bib.

Well made!
