High-Flow, Self-Sealing Cap: The Jet Valve™ maximizes flow rate while automatically sealing to eliminate splatters and spills during a race.
Optimized Cage Fit: Engineered to fit securely in a wide variety of bottle cages, preventing the bottle from ejecting on rough roads or technical sections.
Easy-to-Clean Interface: All parts, including the nozzle, can be separated for thorough cleaning to prevent mould and residue buildup.
Positive Lockout: Features a mechanical dial for a 100% leak-proof seal during transport in gear bags or vehicles.
Trutaste™ Polypropylene with Hydroguard™: Formulated so you taste your water rather than the plastic, with materials that inhibit the growth of bacteria.

Why This IS For You
✅ Competitive Advantage: Keeps your core temperature down on race day by providing cold water for the duration of most standard events.
✅ Pro-Tour Aesthetics: The "Race Edition" styling provides a classic, professional look that coordinates perfectly with team kits and high-end road bikes.
✅ Health & Safety: 100% free of BPA, BPS, and BPF, ensuring you "ride clean and drink clean".
Why This May NOT Be For You
❌ Strict Weight Weenies: If every gram counts and you don't care about water temperature, the standard single-wall Podium is roughly 26g lighter.
❌ Large Frame Interference: Because it is taller (23.8cm) than the standard 600ml bottle, check your clearance if you have a very small frame or limited triangle space.
BFC Pro Tip
The Race Edition is specifically designed for high-intensity efforts. To get the best results, use the positive lockout dial when the bottle is in your gear bag, but keep it "open" once you’re on the bike; the self-sealing Jet Valve is so effective that you won't lose a drop even over bumps, but you'll have instant access to water when you're on the limit!
