Bio:
I tend to review the gear which has disappointed me; but truly, I have bought much more good gear from Backcountry/SAC, than bad.

Laken Classic Bottle - 1L
September 25, 2008
Can anyone explain why this is better than a non-BPA nalgene? Nalgene can be frozen, holds boiling fluids, has a wide mouth, is lighter, transparent to see fluid level, do not dent, etc..All of the above for Nalgene wide mouth bladders, which have the added benefit of reducing the required volume as the beverage is drunk.
