Review on Black Elite 0111804 Byasi Water Bottle by Brad Atl

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Easy storage solution

Carrying essential bike tools and, in my case, a first aid kit in a bottle cage is a good solution when you don't have room for your pannier on the seat post. I only use my bike for commuting and don't need any road maintenance equipment. However, I need first aid kit if I fall or get injured. Look, I'm in my 60's and injury is always a possibility. I have a bike repair kit with several tools, tire levers, pipe patches, band-aids, and emergency contact information. This bottle storage system, as they call it, is solid and reliable. Nice, comfortable case. Snaps and locks into a regular water bottle cage. As with the "divided compartments" the bottle has a cup-sized white insert for small loose items or, for example, as a drinking cup in a fountain. The overall size and capacity is small to medium, but perfect for short trip essentials.

Pros
  • Top marks for grip and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as bulky as others
