I’m on my third fidlock bottle. First one I broke after an epic tomahawk crash on Ridden Art... surprised it was the only thing that broke to be totally honest. The bottle cracked in a few places so I harvested the good magnetic bits off for future replacements.
Second one I lost in a night ride down 7th Secret a few months ago after a sketchy move and accidentally booting it into the forest (if anyone finds one after the Gangler let me know!). Didn’t realize it was gone until I got down to Crinkum. I would have gone back up to look for it but I was riding solo and already soaking wet nearly hypothermic.
Despite them costing almost 50 bucks, I still got another one. Why? I like how low profile it is on and off the bike and stays put on the chunkiest of trails. I have lost more bottles in my years of biking from a standard bottle/cage setup!
