Easy Squeeze water bottles
I have arthritic thumbs and its makes squeezing water bottles somewhat painful....
I currently use Specialized 23 oz HydroFlo bottles and they work great...but I'd like some smaller 16-18oz (550ml) bottles and Spesch doesn't seem to make them... Any suggestions? How are Elites? Thanks |

the couple of Elites I've used are really easy to squeeze, I'd definitely recommend picking one up to give them a try..

Elites are great, specially the newer top.

I love my 550 ml Elite. Easy to use and plenty of water for most of
my rides. I should probably buy another one before they quit making them! |

Anything not insulated will be easier to squeeze. FWIW, I think you'll have more success googling 500ml bike water bottles than 16 or 18oz.
eg. a likely contender that probably works just fine https://www.assos.com/us/signature-w...le-186607.html These though at 20oz certainly appear very squeezable: https://www.canyon.com/en-us/gear/ac...e/9100041.html |

Another vote for the Elites. I have gotten rid of all my Spesh bottles and replaced with Elites because they are so easy to squeeze, sip without squeezing, and they clean up a heck of a lot better than the Spesh’s which used to be best in class but are now a thing of the past.

Have you considered a Bivo stainless steel bottle? They are designed to give nice swigs of water without any squeezing. Plus they don’t flavor your water. A bit pricey though. I’m a fan.

Another vote for elite's. The textured ones. I was a Specialized Purist user but now would buy nothing but the elite.

Note that Elite makes 2 main models: Jet and Fly. Fly is the lightweight one that's very easy to squeeze, even in the smallest size (550ml).

Agree on the Elite Fly model being the easiest to squeeze bottle I have in my collection.

Another vouch for Elite bottles. The Fly Tex in particular.

I’m with Dave in Maine. Bivo bottles: squeeze better (not at all), tastes great.
