The bottle is fine, the top... just... who designed this? Did you actually *use* it after you designed it? The bottle holds liquid as long as you rotate the nozzle to closed. If you leave the nozzle in the open position, it leaks. It does it on my mountain bike and my road bike on smooth pavement. The solution is to leave the nozzle in the closed position but then the nozzle is so hard to operate, you have to stop the bike, open the nozzle, take a drink, close the nozzle, put the bottle back in the holder and take off again.
I get that level of functionality out of a bottle at half the price so I'll be going to cheap bottles.
The design on this new nozzle is nothing short of atrocious. I guess form over function is the name of the game.
