Bottles - where to buy a "beeeg amount" of them

The ol bottle stock could do with an aul refresh. Would be nice to buy a bunch of them and have them... going forward, so to speak.

Anywhere doing multi buy deals on cool ones?

Some bike shops have them cheaper if they're own branding is on them, they aren't brilliant quality but I think the last one I got was a 750ml one for around 3 euro. Halfords have the Camelback Podiums on 3 for 2 at the minute if you want better quality

All sold out according to Halfords.ie just now

The 710ml bottle is €8.24 on wiggle.co.uk which isn't far off the 3 for 2 offer in Halfords @ €11.24 each. They have them in stock as well which reminds me of an old, old joke which I won't bore you with now.

600ml ekoi bottles for €2.50 each. You know we'll all deride you for carrying that extra 100ml, but it's still pretty cheap.

I like the high5 ones, buy a race pack get a bottle. I've about 10 of them in the press

Several bike shops do their own brand bottles and as long as you are a customer I have never know them to charge for them.

fat bloke · 30-08-2015 12:52PM

Thanks all. The UK boys are a bit spicy on the delivery, so I might try local.
Funny when you start on bottle aesthetics, but it's as important as anything else you hang off your bike I guess

Yeah, I've two of the larger ones, it sounds stupid but they're so nice to drink from. The sports tops are grand too.

Otherwise I've gotten those High5 ones in TKMaxx with a shedload of gels/powders/tabs inside for 3 quid each.

A sportif?
In general sportifs give out bottles and in general they make too many. Give the organiser of one that has just gone ahead a call and see will s/he give you a box of spare bottles.
