Product Information

tartangravel here -sat at home overdosing on coffee and looking back at my favourite moments from this year.

It is also really easy to keep clean, either by filling the bag and just shaking the dirt free of the filter, or by removing the filter unit and swooshing it about in some water. After a day of heavy snow, sleet, hail and everything else a Scottish Spring day bring I finished it with my f with a sunny rise out to Loch an Eilein. There are some really great details you can read all about on the Fairlight site and I'll report in all summer as I get the miles in.

The Katadyn BeFree 1 Litre Water Filter is a lightweight and compact water bottle and filter that gives you the freedom to drink anytime, anywhere. You want to go with something that’s more hard-core, a two-stage water filtering system like a LifeStraw. The path is quick by bike from the main road, a little rocky in places and tyre choice being the determining factor in being able to ride it all. Sometimes you don’t need to nail 60 mile days in the hills to find adventure, it can be found just down the road.

Just fill the flexible, foldable reservoir with water and be immediately refreshed doing what you love. I’m going to start sharing some pictures and memories over the next week or so starting with these, taken on the first over night of the year. Using the filter is simple and speedy: you fill up the soft flask with water in the backcountry and drink straight from the attached nozzle, only stopping for as long as it takes to fill the soft flask with water. However, the bottle's durability issues may have you being super careful if you want to optimize its 1000 liter uses.It keeps you from getting what I consider to be the thing that seems to be most common in our community: giardia.
