We've been looking for a nice modern the stainless steel water bottle for ages. Unlike plastic bottles there is no funky plastic taste from these, even the tops are non leaching. They will last a lifetime with care. this is the retro version with a flat, screw off, top. We even stock replacement tops. These bottles are about 1-2mm narrower that many plastic bottles, so you might want to bend your bottle cage in just a touch for a perfect fit. The 27-oz. bottle comes with the full Klean Kanteen logo (sorry, we're out of the logo-less 27s). But it can be removed with a bit of metal polish. Did you know that reproductions of old metal French water bottles cost $160.00 in Japan, if you can get one. SB27F$19.25 All images and text copyright Velo Orange, LLC 2006, 2007, 2008.
