Tacx Shanti Twist £4.99

SO GOOD… A small pressure valve within the nozzle ensures that lighter squeezes won’t release any liquid but it’ll deliver a good burst and decent flow when you give it a proper squeeze. This means that you don’t need to bite the valve (or pull it with your teeth) to get water flowing through it, which makes this 500ml bottle easy to use when putting in hard efforts on the bike. The top has a twist-locking feature, preventing in-car spillage. It was held well by all the bottle cages we tried it in. At £5 it’s excellent value too.

NO GOOD… A wider opening at the neck would make adding energy powders a bit easier, especially when out riding. www.zyrofisher.co.uk
