Staying hydrated is easy. Keeping your drink cold in the middle of an Aussie summer ride is not. The Elite Fly Ice insulated water bottle is designed to keep your water cool for up to 2.5 hours, so you are still reaching for a refreshing drink well into your ride.

This is Elite’s insulated cycling bottle for riders who train or ride in real heat. The double-wall design slows heat transfer, meaning your water stays noticeably cooler than a standard bottle, even when temperatures push past 30°C.

If you ride early mornings, long training loops, bunch rides, gravel, or commuting in summer, this bottle makes a genuine difference. It fits standard bottle cages, is easy to squeeze, and still feels light in the hand despite the insulation.

Who is this insulated water bottle for?

Ideal for riders who train or ride in hot conditions and actually care about cold water lasting more than the first few kilometres. Great for road cyclists, gravel riders, commuters, and anyone riding through Australian summers who wants consistent hydration without warm, plastic-tasting water.

Who is this not for?

This is not for riders chasing the cheapest bottle possible or those who only ride short, casual spins. If you are happy with lukewarm water after 20 minutes, a standard bottle will do the job for less money.

Why we love the Elite Ice Fly

We’ve found the Fly Ice hits a sweet spot between insulation and usability. It keeps drinks cool far longer than a regular bottle, but still squeezes easily and fits every cage we’ve tried. Yes, it costs more, but on hot rides it earns its place quickly.

Hot tip!

For best results, chill the bottle in the fridge before your ride and start with cold water. You will get the full benefit of the insulation, especially on longer rides or during heatwaves.

*About the “Clear” colour: Elite refers to this bottle as “clear” based on the outer shell colour. Due to the insulated double-wall construction, it is not transparent like a standard single-wall bottle, and you cannot clearly see the liquid level inside. This is normal for insulated bottles and part of what allows it to keep drinks cool for longer.
