CamelBakPodium & Peak Fitness Replacement Cap, Black, One Size

This cap is a great replacment for my water bottle. It seals great, easily adjusts and is easy to clean

Perfect!

Fits perfectly and is a great replacement

I’ve uploaded my photo of the original top, which is 6-7 years old so I can’t be too mad, haha. Over the years, the original top got bitten, dropped, gnawed,overtightened, you name it... and eventually no longer worked. It’s a $27 bottle so of course replacing the top is a way better deal than buying a whole new bottle.PROS: Waaaaaay more durable, a harder plastic that will never get bitten through even with my teething toddlers, easy to clean, no leaks, works perfectlyCONS: Pretty difficult to open (meaning turning from the locked to unlock position; Absolutely not doable by children which could be a plus or minus. Has an extra piece in the mouthpiece which makes it easier to clean but also a tiny piece to lose in the process, tiny baby fingers can now fit all the way inside to hold the membrane open while spilling water everywhere.TLDR: If you aren’t going to let kids anywhere near this thing, it’s perfection! Congratulations on not having small children! If your kids are under maybe 10 and certainly under 5, they can’t operate this on their own and will make a mess. Not meant for kids so that’s on me :-)

When I saw CamelBak was redesigning their Podium bottles I wanted to check them out. I have multiple Podium’s in different sizes and configurations and I love them all.I first picked up a new bottle with the new lid. It was the 24oz insulated Chill bottle. The old 25oz Chill is my go-to bottle.I found the new bottles harder to squeeze because of the redesign which makes them fit in cages easier. So overall I didn’t necessarily like that- but it wasn’t the end of the world.But then I noticed the new lids were backwards compatible with the old bottles— and the new lids are SHORTER than the old ones because part of the spout is inset inside the cap.That’s when I had my EUREEKA moment. And I immediately purchased 4 of these new lids.My old 25oz chill is JUUUUST too tall to fit in my seat tube cage because of how tall the old spout was. I’m a short guy and ride a short bike. So I had to step down to the 21oz old chill to fit in that cage.BUT NOT NOW! I can now carry 2 insulated 25oz Chill bottles with me. SWEET.Overall the new bottles aren’t necessarily any worse, just different. And you do lose an ounce on the big size chill.Same goes for these new lids. They can be taken more apart than the old ones so cleaning should be easier and better. They are more compact which is great if you need the space. But at the end of the day they are mostly the same Podium spouts we love.TL;DR— old bottles + new lids is the way to go!

I bought this to replace an older cap that was getting gunky due to a failed O ring that was impossible to clean (see pic w/ pointer to problem spot). I like that the replacement cap fits, works and is simpler in design (no O ring) and therefore more sanitary & easier to clean than the original. However, the nozzle leaks in the “locked” position; you can actually squirt water 💦 out even when it’s locked and hence my -1 star rating. Otherwise it has held up after several rides, including a rough & tumble gravel grinder.

Perfect fit to replace the old lid that was damaged. I'm glad they sell just the lid so I don't have to replace the entire bottle.

Exelente producto
