User Review: Klean Kanteen 27oz Classic

Great for motorcycle camping.

I have been using hard plastic Lexan bottles and soft plastic Gator-Aid bottles for several years but recently decided to investigate metal bottles partly because I wanted a large, durable, BPA-free bottle.

The primary reasons I chose this particular bottle were: 1) its small diameter makes it easy to fit in my saddlebag guard bags and daypack side pockets and 2) it holds more water than many other bottles. I also noted that its weight is about the same as similar sized aluminum bottles. The large mouth allows you to put in ice cubes easily and the water tastes fresh with no plastic aftertaste.

The only thing that would make it better is a valve that would allow you to drink without having to unscrew the top. But as is, it is the best water bottle I have used.
