No straw in triathlon

In addition to late arrival, there is no straw in this package, making it unusable. I am beyond disappointed with this purchase.

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Compatibility

Can be easily improved in terms of sport

Good idea. When driving over bumps, the bottle comes out easily. I've lost a bottle a few times while riding the railroad tracks. The straps don't hold the frame very tight.

Pros
  • Lots of positive emotions
Cons
  • A few little things

Good for the price - Sport

It fits well in my tricycle between the aero bars. Velcro, removable if desired. It's a bit tricky to clean, but worth it for long trips. Great value for money.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Doubtful

We ordered this as a gift. The packaging was a little wrinkled upon delivery, but the product itself looked great. The person who received it was very enthusiastic and said it works great! He likes that there is an adapter for viewing a computer.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • unreliable

Just awful. About Sports

I purchased this item for a half Ironman I was about to do. It was very easy to install, which was good, but was terrible in use. The bottle rattled so loudly the entire ride, trying to fall out with almost every hit. Also, the straw splashed a mixture of water and Gatorade in my face with every hit. I would not recommend it at all. I'm looking for other options because it has largely ruined my racing experience.

Pros
  • Multiple Members
Cons
  • Minor Issues

Great Idea, Poor Execution

Pros: Holds water. You don't need to tell other drivers/hikers that you're approaching as they can hear you approach them from about 500 feet away before you meet them. Cons: Velcro straps are too short to fit on my aero bars. Very noisy (probably because the straps are too short). The slots that the straps go through are in a terrible spot under the bottle cage. Ditto for the spare nuts to move the cage back and forth. You need something to connect the device and the stem. I'll try to find zip

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
