  • I need some new bottles so it's that time again when I look at the bottles on offer and feel disappointed that I can't find anything to suit my bike :/

    I gather Specialized Purist bottles are good but I don't quite understand the difference between the dreadfully named MoFlo, Fixy and Watergate valves. I think I want a Fixy because you just squeeze it, but what's the difference between the MoFlo and the Watergate?

    I think I get that MoFlo = more flow but Watergate just suggests political scandal and corruption which doesn't seem super relevant.

    Does anyone have any practical experience of the different, er, openings?

  • I have bottles with the Watergate and Moflo openings. I don’t particularly like the Watergate valve openings. Too hard to opening with your hand or mouth (for me) to pull up the nozzle.
