Drinking water bag is often used in outdoor riding, mountaineering and hiking. The main components of drinking water bag are suction nozzle, or bite mouth, water valve, etc.

Water bag for outdoor riding

Outdoor cycling can't do without drinking water. How to satisfy drinking water? There are several general solutions: bring your own water, use containers, traditional ones such as thermos bottles, use foldable water bags, soft ones, and buy mineral water on the road.

Full opening drinking water bag

Introduce the water bag
The appearance of the water bag is mainly made of food grade plastic, and the accessories are also food grade, folding resistant and portable. Compared with the hard bottle, the advantage is that after storing and drinking water, the space occupied is very small.
Water bags were born in Europe in the early days. Cycling in Europe has always been one of the ways of fitness and leisure for European people, so cycling is very popular. For more convenient activities, water bags are popular. It wasn't until about 2000 that it became popular and accepted in mainland China.

In the early stage, the water bag was a screw tooth water inlet, which had high requirements for accessories and large temperature difference, and might leak.
The full opening water bag is upgraded on the basis of the screw tooth opening water bag, which is more convenient for maintenance and cleaning, and has longer service life. The advantage is that the precision requirement of the drawing part is not too high, even if the temperature difference in the outdoor environment is too large, it is not easy to produce water leakage.
Water bag accessories suction nozzle
The following is about the accessories of water bag
The main ingredients are almost the same, the only difference is the hygiene level and purity. The difference is generally not too big.
In fact, the main difference of water bags lies in the function of accessories. For example, one of the core differences is the difference of suction mouth.

The picture above shows the integrated mouthpiece, which is relatively common. Production requirements are not too high, but the only guarantee is food grade silica gel.

The picture above shows a simple straight suction nozzle. Its switch is controlled by the white and gray part of sucking. You can drink water by biting here, and turn off the water when you release it.

Elbow suction nozzle

The picture above shows the elbow suction nozzle, which is relatively straight. The elbow is about 105 degrees, which is very close to ergonomics.

Straight suction nozzle
The picture above shows the straight suction nozzle with switch, which is a little more advanced than the simple type. But there is little difference in water output.

360 degree rotary suction nozzle

360 degree rotary suction nozzle
The picture above shows a 360 degree rotating suction nozzle, which is very convenient. The main function is to close the drinking water valve when it is rotated to 0 degrees. Of course, the silicone mouth of the sucking part is also a biting pressure switch.

The picture above shows a 360 degree quick detachable suction nozzle, which has many advantages. For example, some riders who bring water and drink can quickly switch between drinking water and drink. Just remove the sucking device and plug it into another seat to drink the corresponding water or drink.

In addition, the removed device automatically turns off the water flow.


液态硅胶吸嘴

Finally, I'd like to introduce the new type of liquid silica gel suction nozzle. Now the water bags in Europe are pursuing a better use experience. This kind of liquid silica gel suction nozzle has obvious advantages, such as higher precision, softer, more environmental protection and better water flow experience.
Concluding remarks
In a sense, outdoor sports is the sport of equipment competition, good equipment is self-evident. If you have a water bag, don't discard it easily. Replace and update the accessories, so that you may find a new feeling.
Life is growing up in constant toss, we also find happiness in toss.
