TWIST Bottle 800 + Bike Base

You don’t know what you’ve been missing

Guys, this is hands down the best water bottle ever. Easy to stow, easier to use, and you’ll be the envy of everybody. Thing to consider: check your frame size. Not all frames sizes can stow bigger bottles.

Perfect fit

I am on the small size. So my bike frame are size small which limit the space in-between the triangle. Thus I can only fit one regular sized bottle on some of my bikes if any. So when i seen these I realized that they would be perfect because the bottle doesn't have to slide in or be pulled out from the top of cage. Which with a regular bottle cage, the bottle hits my frames causing it to be either unusable or difficult to use.

Great in theory, poorly executed

Got one of these about a month ago, thinking it would be great. The idea is good, but it just doesn’t work quite right. First off, the first time I dropped it in the kitchen the little cap on the lid broke in half. Okay, my fault I guess but it probably shouldn’t have broken on a 2 foot fall (empty, by the way). On the bike, it is nice to not have a cage when you aren’t carrying the bottle. Again, great idea. But with the bottle, there is a lot of play in the system. It doesn’t feel super sturdy. It didn’t fall off on me, but it did move around and make some noise. Lastly, the bottle leaks. It really does. When you squeeze it to drink some water. It starts to leak around the lid/threads. I found that if I really baby it and just do little tiny squeezes, it doesn’t seem to leak. But I don’t want my $50 water bottle to need special treatment. It sucks, I really like the idea and the look but it just doesn’t work like it should. Maybe I just got a bad one, who knows. But my experience just hasn’t been great.
