Whether it be water bottles, flasks, water cages or hydration packs we review them here.

Zefal Magnum Water Bottles - This is a review about the plastic 1 litre Zefal Magnum water bottle. This bottle fits a standard water cage holder, but holds 1 litre of liquid instead of the usual 750 ml. As long as there is enough clearance on your bike above your water bottle cage, this bottle will fit the cage. You also need a little bit of room to remove the bottle from the cage.

Deuter 3 litre hyrdro pack - After using a Makismo 2 litre water back pack and retro fitting it with twin 2 litre bladders, and then buying a Camelbak, which is, in my opinion a complete waste of money, I worked out what would be perfect in a water back pack.

Makismo Water Back Pack - I have used one of these for several years. It originally came with a 2 litre bladder. I have on some trips fitted a second 2 litre bladder, giving it a total of 4 litres.

CamelBak Water Back Pack - This is a short review of a 1.5 litre water back pack called the CamelBak. After using a water back pack that has large pockets and the ability to hold two 2 litre water bladders, this one was a let down. This particular model I rate as useless for any long distance riding in the heat.
