Fly Tex

Fly Tex is the most-used bottle in cycling and by WorldTour champions. Its record weight, easy-to-squeeze body while riding, and high-flow cap make it the benchmark for performance, reliability, and comfort—both in races and on training rides.

Made with 30% less plastic than the average bottles on the market, Elite’s Fly is synonymous with bike-optimized design, light weight, and speed. The new textured exterior improves on-the-bike grip. Available in 550, 750 and 950 ml, with a universal 74 mm diameter it fits all standard bottle cages.

Fly Tex is the go-to bottle for anyone who takes cycling seriously.

    RECORD-SETTING LIGHTNESS

    Fly Tex weighs just 51 g in the 550 ml version—one of the lightest bottles in the world.

    Every detail is engineered to eliminate excess material and optimize weight and usability while ensuring strength and durability. The technical plastic body and minimalist structure are designed for riders who want maximum efficiency, even for the quickest grabs.

    No surprise it’s the most-used bottle by WorldTour champions.

  • Sporty

    MORE GRIP, MAXIMUM FLOW

    The new textured exterior improves grip even while riding, with sweaty or gloved hands. The body is designed to be easily squeezable: a light press gives immediate flow.

    The cap, with push-pull valve and a mouth opening enlarged by 20%, delivers a powerful, fast stream while you ride.

    ENGINEERED FOR THE BIKE

    Fly Tex has a compact, light and highly functional design, built to sit securely in any 74 mm cage—even on frames with tight clearances like MTB and gravel.

    Its essential profile makes insertion and removal smooth even on the move, perfect for technical or high-speed riding.

  • More sustainable

    LESS PLASTIC, MORE EFFICIENCY

    Fly Tex is born from a design approach that removes all excess from the very first sketches: less plastic, more lightness, more performance. It’s produced with 30% less material than the market average, without compromising seal or durability.

    An eco-design model that helps reduce our impact from concept to production. Read what we do for the environment in the Sustainability area of our site.

  • Easy to disassemble

    MAXIMUM HYGIENE AND SAFETY

    Made from recyclable, BPA-free materials compliant with FDA and CE regulations, Fly Tex is the result of over three years of research with university centers.

    The wide opening makes it easy to fill with liquids or mixes and simplifies thorough cleaning. After use you can fully disassemble body and cap for fast, accurate drying.

    ALSO AVAILABLE WITH PROTECTIVE COVER

    For those who ride off-road or in extreme conditions, Fly Tex is available in the Fly MTB version with a screw-on protective cover that shields the valve from dust, mud and debris.

    All Fly Tex models are compatible with the cover, which can also be purchased in our shop.

There are a few good reasons why so many of the WorldTour teams have adopted the Elite Fly Tex bottles.
