bought a newer bottle without the lid and realized how much I really liked the dust cover cap on my other bottles. Bought this to replace lid and happy to continue using bottle. The parts are easy to take apart and clean.
Same issue as Jon mentioned. Brand new mount. Pull tab broke off first use. Poor design. Emailed support and no response.
Amazing Systems love how minimalist it is; the bottle holder stays secure on jumps and during fast descents, with no rattle or noise. The water capacity is good for a 3 to 4mile ride before it needs refilling.
I had the same problem as Cal. The pull tab broke due to bad design. I emailed for help with no response.
The flip lids keep the spout clean on gravel and dirt, which is much appreciated. On the other hand it makes the bottles a little more difficult to access. The bottles do leak a little--screwing the caps on really tight seems to help.
The compact size but still large capacity works well on my bike. I also utilize the bottle sleeve to keep my water cold.
Really excellent quality, seals so tight. I do wish there were replacement bite valves on the Fidlock spare parts (page is also hard to find :-) as I almost lose the only one that came with it every time I empty & dry it. Or possibly include 3 with each purchase, please, thanks!
I love the Fidlock tech & reliability on bumpy rides! I use the top bar "snub nose" one for Skratch recovery & Ryze coffee combo for when I start to bonk or get hungry, some rides I don't need a backpack water bladder.

I dislike that I still haven’t received my Vacuum tex base - I have talked to Support at Shop and they told me to file a charge back with my bank so that I can get my money back because your company stop communicating with me
1) you did not send a whole order
2) you recognize the error and told me you were sending the tex base - then sent it to an address that was not mine
3) after I sent you pictures of the tracking address you sent it to, you folks promised to send the package to my home address and confirm that address with me (which was the address that you sent the other piece to in the first place) you guys said you were sorry and you were shipping this out and there is no tracking information and nobody is talking to me any longer
The only reason why I gave one star is it wouldn’t let me give this review unless I gave something but at this point I’ve been ripped off for $40 so of course I would like to say zero star
Fidlock is intentionally or accidentally very accessible for disabilities. The vacuum phone mount system is wonderful. This phone case is good for that. But the volume, and power button are difficult and painful to press. I’ll have to try the adhesive sticker on a different case.
Writing this review for all the YT Jeffsy owners. I have a 2022 YT Jeffsy Core 4 CF. This is a perfect replacement for the thirst master bottle. Although I already have the thirst master plate. I have not tried this with the standard bottle mount for fidlok
I bought this from a local bike shop. It is well made and appears robust. I heard it snap into place. Filled it with a tube, patch kit, pump, favorite large multitool, tire leavers, chain links; thankfully not my wallet or car keys. First time out I got home to find I didn’t have it any longer. Could have come off when I came off the bike, could have come off with vibration. Guess I”ll
go back to a pack.
The product is great as always, but customer service leaves a lot to be desired. Company has no problem overselling in stock products and not telling you it is backordered until you finally reach out to them. Took two weeks for me to find out the product would be another two weeks, and was still delayed beyond that. If I decide to keep supporting the company, it will be through a brick and mortar. Product is 5 stars, but the company brings the rating down.
The fidlock hip pack is a standout in its class. I’ve had several and this one fits the best. The strap management is on point as well as the lower back pads.
Perfect fit and impressive holding power. It works so well that I went ahead and bought the car suction base too.
