Review on FC35 Hydration System by Profile Designs - 35oz Capacity by Andrew Kay

I used an older version of this system before they developed the clamp system. The older model used Velcro as part of the clamping mechanism, but the adjustability made it ideal for my aero bars on my Specialized Shiv as the stem expands right around the armrest. With the newer model, I can't mount it further forward; So I had to flip it over to install it on the bars. Also, the red strap is better than the old velcro strap, but it has its own issues with putting the bottle on and off. When it's set to the default configuration, you'll have a hard time unbuckling the strap and you'll end up having to unclip the clips and remove the entire system. I got the impression that this was designed by engineers who didn't bother to get constructive input from consumers. If I had known these shortcomings, I would never have bought this product.
