I bought a couple of high 5 bottles at halfords as they were under two pound ,they used to be made of hard plastic but these are very thin.
I think i will be going back to the wide neck sis bottle.

Not Mondrian but there's 2 white ones on ebay for a tenner.

or bigger 800ml ones

I must admit I've always loved the Mondrian Look's, if I ever won the lottery I'd get a Look geared and track bike in Mondrian colours.

If your into going the whole hog on matchy kit, Prendas do a whole load of Mondrian coloured stuff.

[QUOTE 5358065, member: 9609"]alternatively just use a plastic drinks bottle, free and lasts about forever - they also don't seem to have that orrible plasticy taste that sprorts drinks bottles so often do.

There's nothing worse on a hot day than going to take a big swig from your bottle and the water being as warm as teaxx(. This has been a real struggle in the hot summer we've had. The best I can manage is to put 1 water bottle filled with water into the freezer the day before so its totally frozen solid, and on the ride next day as that gradually thaws I keep topping up the other bottle which has just water and ice cubes. This is the best I can do.

I've seen flask type water bottles that keep water cool, but all the ones I've seen have screw top lids so you can't really drink while cycling along. Has anyone ever seen a insulated flask type that has a top like a normal bottle or with some kind of funky insulating valve that allows you to drink while riding?

Unless its out there already and I've not seen it, someone needs to invent some kind of solar panel covered water bottle that uses the suns rays to keep the liquid inside cool.
