Single-wall construction keeps the Podium bottle lightweight and easy to squeeze without sacrificing durability. If you don't need insulation because you're riding in cooler weather or refilling frequently at aid stations, this gives you a simple squeeze bottle that works without extra bulk or thermal mass. The twenty-four-ounce capacity provides enough hydration for rides up to two hours without needing to carry multiple bottles or stop for refills, and at seventy-seven grams it's light enough that you won't notice the weight penalty of bringing water along.

The self-sealing Jet Valve opens under squeeze pressure and closes automatically when you release, which means you get a strong water stream without having to bite down or twist anything open. You just squeeze and drink. An on-off valve locks the entire system shut for transport—flip it closed before tossing the bottle in your bag and you won't end up with everything soaked from a leaky valve. The bottle body flexes easily under normal hand pressure so you pull more water per squeeze compared to rigid bottles that require a death grip to coax any flow out. That matters when you're holding the bars with one hand and trying to drink without slowing down or losing focus on the road ahead.

CamelBak builds the bottle with Trutaste polypropylene that doesn't retain flavors or odors between fills. If you've used bottles that permanently taste like yesterday's electrolyte mix no matter how many times you scrub them, you know why neutral material matters. All components separate for cleaning—the cap, valve, and body come apart without tools so you can reach every surface that touches water. The optimized diameter fits standard bottle cages without binding, which means you can extract and replace the bottle mid-ride without fumbling or missing the cage. Materials are free of BPA, BPS, and BPF. CamelBak backs the bottle with their Got Your Bak lifetime guarantee covering manufacturing defects in materials and workmanship.
