BackBottle turns hydration pack into jersey pocket friendly water bottle

Cool idea. Need one for my track bike/commuter.

And you use as a second bottle or third bottle when the cages are full. Look like it needs a deep pocket sit well.

on extreamley long rides or long competitions always use for example old or new powerrade bottles. this I can thruw away when empty. (at depå area) And can be recyled in supermatrkets for money. Dont know why i should buy theese when soluotions allredy exsist?

More plastic products, is just what the earth needs….to be a little bit more ergonomic!?

Does it still fit in a standard bottle cage?

I think the best use of this is in the winter when bottles freeze on long rides below freezing. If you wear a jersey under a jacket, you can do this with any bottle(that’s what I do) but this would be far more comfortable.

I guess its a way out if you have two cages with no place to fill up and need a third bottle but I’d hate to be riding long enough(if I didn’t have to) with all that weight in my back. Not a big deal in the winter because you’re already a little uncomfortable but in the summer, I prefer to not have heavy things weighing down my jersey

I got excited when I saw this, then realized it won’t help the one thing that drives me nuts about a water bottle in my jersey pocket.

My spine. A tight fitting jersey makes the bottle constant shifting from one side to the other in the center pocket, and the slots added for breathability here just would accentuate that I think.

@Psi Squared. that looks like a shimano Accu 3D jersey. just a guess.

how soon will I see this in skymall?

Nothing like a warm water bottle on a stinking hot day. Two bottles isn’t enough? It’s not that hard to plan for refill points even in the remotest of spots.

Good luck to them. I hope they sell thousands.

one word: nordic skiing.

Anyone try these in jerseys….packs smaller when empty

Yea; this would be great for longer track bike rides.

did I really just read someone (Johan) advocate using disposable bottles instead of reusable ones… because of the environment? The cognitive dissonance is strong with this one…

I agree with Bill, needs the ridge down the middle to relieve pressure on the spine. that would also help it stay put better.

I like this idea. I’m small, short, and women’s jerseys have absolutely HORRIBLE pockets on them. This seems like it would fit better than a standard round bottle and not wear holes in my spine. I’m always having to carry a spare bottle in my jersey on long cross or MTB rides because I can’t fit 2 bottles on my tiny frames and I hate carrying a pack (kills my neck and shoulders). Thanks for this idea.

Yes, it looks like a marital aid….no, it won’t stand up….yes, it’s definitely a niche market item….but….I think it’ll will be d*mn useful as the Summer heat cranks up … throw ten bucks at it, give it a shot ….
