FLY TEX
The Elite Fly Tex is WorldTour’s most used water bottle because it’s incredibly lightweight.
Its record weight (at only 51 g for the 550 ml version) makes it possible for us to use less plastic material as we make it, and guarantee the Elite-classic ergonomic structure that it's easy to squeeze so liquid flow is abundant with the lightest pressure.
Fly Tex Elite is available in many different colour options for a perfect match with your bike and your bottle cage. The bottle features an immediately identifiable sport-like design with a new texture designed to improve grip on the bottle, which is sweet when you’re riding your bike.
Â
Extreme liquid flow
The ergonomic cap with wider flat push-pull nozzle and a wider mouth ensure high liquid flow, which is also guaranteed by the soft bottle body: you will just need to squeeze gently your Fly Tex to get a vigorous liquid flow.
Easy to open and close with your mouth, the Fly Tex’s valve is ideal when you’re using this bottle while you’re moving on your bike. The bigger opening make it easy to fill the bottle up and wash it properly
Â
Compact design
Feturing a new racing design, the Elite Fly Tex bottles work extraordinary well and stable in all cages so that bottle insertion and extraction are smooth and easy every time you're riding. Compact design means the Fly is perfect for road bikes as well as gravel bikes and mountain bikes that feature smaller frames.
The bottle’s practical and sustainable structure is designed to eliminate excess material during production and, by doing so, have the lightest product in the market with no waste.
Â
Less plastic, only performance
Elite firmly believes that each athlete is responsible for taking care of the world and the environment everyone rides in. By implementing new eco-design manufacturing processes, we consider both materials and technologies. That’s why we’re proud to use over 30% less plastic than average compared to industry standards to create one single bottle of the Fly range.Â
By making our Fly Tex bottles so lightweight by design, we can significantly reduce our carbon footprint and help ease pressure on the environment by ensuring the lowest CO2 emissions from our produtcion of water bottles.
Â
Hygienic, innovative materials
This bottle is manufactured using innovative, odorless, soft and resistant plastic materials, which is the result of a 3-year long study conducted with multiple universities research centers.Â
The Fly Tex is also hygienic and easy to wash. It features a 20% wider mouth compared to standard bottles to help our customers achieve better hydration and properly hygienize their bottles. Fly bottles are easy to disassemble, so you can dry both the bottle body and the cap with nozzle and avoid any mold growth inside or the subsequent bad smell.Â
To ensure even more protection we also created a practical protective plastic cap, available for purchase on www.shopelite-it.com, that you can tighten on the bottle to protect the nozzle from mud, soil and other external agents that might remain on the spout during use. The Cap is already included in the Fly Tex MTB series.
