Video Description
In this video, Neil takes a closer look at a range of one-liter bottles, from backpacking-focused options like the Cnoc ThruBottle and Igneous NOBO to cycling options like the Zefal Magnum and HydraPak Breakaway. After months of testing different shapes, caps, cage compatibility, and real-world use on rides and trips, he shares what worked, what didn’t, and which bottles might make the most sense for your setup.
