Review on 🚰 XLAB Hydroblade Water Bottle: Optimal Transparency and Versatility in One Size by Kevin Harmon

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great addition to my tricycle

While this is a great addition to my tricycle, it has a design flaw. The top opening is great for quick refills, but the top door tends to pop open and spew liquid at higher speeds and with every hit on a bump. I solved this problem by smearing the velcro on each side of the bottle and adding a velcro top to keep it closed but still be able to open it quickly. It looks like a simple manufacturing solution would be just an indentation on each side of the bottle and a bulge on each side of the cap so that they fit together when closed and offer little resistance when opened.

Pros
  • Cycling
Cons
