CamelBak Better Bottle oz Bite Valve and Straws Reviews
I'm adding my voice to the already-extant cacophony: why can't we order a bite valve without the straws?? As others have said, the valve goes bad way before the straw ever would. It irks me that I'm paying almost half the amount as it would be to just get a brand new bottle.
I've combed the internet for suggestions on how to clean the bite valve to prevent having to replace it so often (without the Camelbak cleaning gear) and here's what I've come up with: I put it in a glass with hot soapy water and let it sit overnight, and then I scrub it out with my pinkie with thin cloth (bandana) over it, then I try to scrub the inner grooves with q-tips, going in from both ends. Nothing works very well! An old toothbrush, trimmed, will not get rid of those moldy spots once they start. I've read you can boil it, but then people say it breaks down faster and gets holes if you do that, so I haven't tried it. What I'm going to do with this one is just take it off and shake the water out of it every night when I get home and let it air out, and scrub it once a week or so. If you have other ideas comment please!
