Although it still didn't leak after a year and a half of daily commuting use, I did have to make sure it was twisted on tight. It fits perfectly in a bottle cage, but you'll want to make sure the cage is tight or has rubber to grip the metal of the flask. As far as it's primary job it is the best I've ever used. Hot stays hot for a good 5 hours, ice cubes and water even longer. The outside temps don't seem to matter much because I've commuted in the 20's and still the same nice and hot coffee at work. Cheers
I agree. The product looks like a generic Hydroflask. I have both Hydroflasks and Kleen Kanteen (Insulated) and I can confirm that they both fit PERFECTLY in a waterbottle cage. The trick is to get a cage without the "nubbin"at the top to hold the bottle in. A good example is the
Tacx Tao
or the less expensive
Planet Bike "Button" cage. The Tacx is the one I have; it is made from Aluminum and holds very well. There are others that would work as well, but if the fit is a little loose (not a problem with the Tacx) you might mount them on the seat tube just to be safe.
My cage is mounted as low as possible, so I can fit the 12oz Kleen Cantten Insulated, or the taller 18oz Hydroflask:
