CAMELBAK PODIUM BOTTLE 700ML MERCURY TEAL
The CamelBak Podium 710ml is the high-capacity standard for cycling water bottles, engineered to fit securely in a wide variety of bottle cages while providing a high-flow, effortless hydration experience. This "Mercury Teal" edition offers a crisp, aquatic aesthetic, combining a translucent grey "Mercury" body with vibrant teal accents on the cap and valve.
Key Performance Features
High-Flow, Self-Sealing Jet Valve™: The medical-grade silicone valve delivers more water per squeeze and automatically seals after every sip, preventing annoying splashes and leaks on your frame.
Optimized Cage Fit: Engineered to fit firmly in almost all standard bike cages, reducing "bottle launch" on rough roads or technical trails.
Easy-to-Clean Interface: All parts, including the nozzle, can be separated for a thorough cleaning, ensuring you don't get any hidden mould buildup.
Positive Lockout: Features an ergonomic dial that provides a leak-proof seal for transport in gear bags or in the back of the car.
Trutaste™ Polypropylene with Hydroguard™: Ensures you taste your water, not the bottle. The BPA-free material prevents plastic "aftertaste" and inhibits the growth of bacteria.
Easy Squeeze Body: Made from a lightweight, flexible material that requires minimal hand pressure to get a high volume of fluid.

Why This IS For You
✅ Extended Range: The 710ml capacity is ideal for riders tackling 2+ hour sessions where water stops are infrequent.
✅ Fresh Aesthetic: The Teal accents provide a bright, energetic look that stands out without being overwhelming.
✅ The "Clean Water" Fanatic: If you hate the taste of plastic, CamelBak’s Trutaste™ tech is the best in the business.
Why This May NOT Be For You
❌ Small Frame Clearance: On some small or extra-small frames (especially dual-suspension MTBs), the extra height of the 710ml bottle may interfere with the top tube or shock.
❌ Ice Cold Requirements: This is a single-wall bottle; if you’re riding in extreme heat and want your water to stay cold, you’ll need the Podium Chill version.
BFC Pro Tip
The Mercury Teal is a great visual match for many modern "Celeste" or "Aqua" bike frames. Since this is the 710ml version, if you find it a bit tight to pull out of your frame, try a "side-pull" cage—it makes accessing these taller bottles much easier while keeping them tucked away in the main triangle!
