Leaking Lid
the lid was leaking from the first time i used it. i am disappointed, every time i rolled on rough roads or bumps, fluid comes out of the cap and makes the bottle cage and frame sticky.

Great bottle but a bit leaky
I love thee bottles. Such a good looking design.
I do however wish that They were still the old camelback ones with the old nozzle.
These ones unfortunately leak water when upside down or sideways if the nozzle is “open” whereas the old bottles would retain the water in any position.

Scratches easily
bought this bottle two weeks ago and used a three-four times. Unfortunately it scratches easily when taking out of the holder on the bike

Leaky bottle
Leaks, a far cry from the camelback mouth peace on the earlier bidons I bought from Rapha. Would not advise this product.

Nice flow
This is a great little bottle. The cap provides great flow, and the bottle material is supple enough to squeeze easily, but does not feel cheap. The bottle cleans easily and has not held onto flavors going from electrolyte to water. I've ridden with it a few times during the #festive500, and have not had any leaks. As seems to be the case with other products I've purchased from Rapha, it's the little details that I enjoy. In this case I like the pro team tag on the backside, yes I filled it out.

highest quality glass-lined interior
Another review may have mentioned this fact, but Rapha's description is a bit hush-hush about it: these are purist bottles. So while the Rapha branding on the bottle is the typical smooth and sweet styling endemic to everything the company does, the guts of this bottle is the perfect flexible glass lining inside. It's the cleanest, healthiest, purest water bottle on the market, and I've used it exclusively for years. I had no idea when I ordered mine. I just got them because, hey, it's Rapha, and I am, like many, into their simple, refined, top-end kit that doesn't turn me into a billboard for anyone but also doesn't make me look like a bad spin-off from the '80s Buck Rogers show costume closet. Ahhh, Rapha. But a Rapha bottle with the purist lining? Now that's a perfect piece of product.

Leaks unless you WRENCH on the lid
Like the look of the bottle, but find the lid leaks unless you really really really reef it on, at which point the bottle buckles a bit. Not has user-friendly as some of my other bidons.

Black Purist bottle with big letters
Specialized purist bottles come in a million variations, this is one of them. The bottle holds water and is marketed to be antibacterial. The opening is easily operated by mouth while riding and will hydrate you with a perfect amount of whatever’s in the tank.
Be aware that dirt between bottle and cage will scratch it (gravel…), like any other bottle out there.
It looks good on my bicycles. The white Pro Team font on black is my favorite.

What have you done Rapha
As others have said the new system is a complete joke. What have you done Rapha. It's like you changed it without testing the new system in the real world. I can't see how you could have tested and thought this was suitable. Very strange/annoying.

Scratches easily!
Nice but rather expensive water bottle. I preferred the previous CAMELBACK valve system but this also does the job, takes a little to get used though. The surface of the bottle is vulnerable to scratches when the bottle gets put in to my (carbon) bottle cage.

Does what it is supposed to do
Does what it is supposed to do and for all the folks that complain about the logo rubbing off it just shows that you actually ride your bike and use the product. Use Rule #5 and stop being a snowflake!

Need a better Bidon design
Wish that Rapha would make more of a thermoflask type of Bidon seeing as that the liquid inside changes to whatever temp it is outside. Having cold water in hot temperature is a game changer.

It’s a water bottle
It’s fine. I got the white and it scratches/discolors really easily—but I kind of expected that. I purchased it to get above the free shipping threshold and would recommend it for that.

Nice update to bidon range
I’m a big fan of the camelbak bottles of the previous version of the Rapha bidon but this new design and lid/teet is just as good. Nice to have some Pro Team bling on the bottles too!

Easily scratch
I was excited for this bottle , but after the first used the letters was already all scratch up and so is the bottle. It sure looks nice but wishes it’ll hold up a bit better.

Immancabile per completare lo stile rapha
Ottima cone tutte le borracce rapha, prezzo leggermente alto visto il veloce deterioramento del prodotto, sopratutto la scritta si rovina in atrito con il portaborraccia

Does not last long
Very easy to scratch so it looks like it has 10000 rides after a few spins, cap does not close tight as other so as you gain elevation or shake it it spills

Nice Improvements
This iteration of the Rapha bidon is very nice. It fits in my bottle cages better than the previous generation and the nozzle's water flow is much better.

Not so new bidon
Nice size and style, unfortunately after just one use, so many scratches can already be seen. It looks old even if it’s practically brand new.
