FAQs

Does this bottle keep ice frozen?

While it provides 4 hours of temperature retention, it is not a vacuum-sealed flask; it will keep liquids cold for several hours, but ice will melt faster than in a metal vacuum bottle.

Can I put sports drinks in this bottle?

Yes, the internal coating is designed to be compatible with standard sports hydration mixes.

Is the protective cap removable?

Yes, the protective cap can be taken off for road riding if you prefer easier access to the nozzle.

Will it fit in my standard bike cage?

Yes, it is designed with standard geometry to fit almost all universal cycling bottle cages.

What happens if I wash it in water above 40°C?

Washing above 40°C may compromise the structural integrity of the Nanogel insulation and the bottle body, potentially leading to deformation.

Troubleshooting

The nozzle flow rate seems slow

Check the push-pull nozzle for any debris or mineral buildup and rinse thoroughly with warm water.

Bottle feels like it has lost its shape

Avoid placing the bottle in high-heat dishwashers, as exceeding 40°C can deform the lightweight thermal material.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight compared to traditional insulated bottles
  • Versatile use for both hot and cold beverages
  • Effective temperature retention up to 4 hours
  • High-flow valve system for quick hydration
  • Easy to clean due to the wide bottle opening

Cons

  • Dishwasher limit of 40°C is lower than some standard plastic bottles
  • 500ml capacity may be insufficient for ultra-endurance rides
  • Requires careful hand-washing if the dishwasher cycle is too hot

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the longevity of your Elite Nano Fly bottle, follow these guidelines:

  1. Compatibility: The 500ml diameter is standard, fitting most bicycle bottle cages securely.
  2. Cleaning: While the bottle is dishwasher safe, you must ensure the cycle does not exceed 40°C. For best results, hand wash with mild soap using a bottle brush.
  3. Preparation: When using boiling water (up to 100°C), fill the bottle carefully to avoid accidental spills and allow a moment for the inner liner to normalize.
  4. Storage: Always store the bottle with the cap off to ensure the interior dries completely, preventing odors.
