Full details
The Elite Eroica 600ml bottle is designed for vintage bicycle enthusiasts and riders who value classic aesthetics without sacrificing modern food-safety standards. It serves as an ideal accessory for retro-styled builds, offering a unique handmade silver finish and natural cork stopper that captures the essence of the heroic age of cycling. While it provides a sophisticated look for your bike, users should note that the rigid metal construction and cork stopper require more careful handling compared to standard squeeze-style plastic bottles.

FAQs
Is the Elite Eroica bottle dishwasher safe?
No, it should be hand-washed only to preserve the handmade finish and the integrity of the natural cork.
Will this fit a standard modern water bottle cage?
Yes, it is designed for 74mm diameter cages, which is the industry standard for both vintage and modern bikes.
Is the interior safe for all drinks?
The interior features a food-grade, antibacterial coating, making it safe for water, but it is recommended to rinse it thoroughly after each use.
Does the cork stopper leak during rides?
If properly seated, the cork provides a secure seal, though it is intended for upright transport and should not be tossed loosely in a bag.
What is the total capacity of the bottle?
The Elite Eroica has a total capacity of 600ml.
Troubleshooting
The bottle rattles in the cage
Ensure you are using a 74mm cage and consider using the dedicated Elite Eroica cage for a tighter, more secure fit.
Cork stopper is difficult to remove
Gently twist the cork while pulling upward rather than yanking it straight out; ensure the cork remains dry on the exterior.
Strange taste in water
Wash the interior thoroughly with warm water and mild detergent, then ensure it is fully dried after every ride.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Elite Eroica bottle lasts, avoid using harsh chemicals or scouring pads, as these will damage the handmade silver finish. Rinse the bottle with warm water and mild soap after each use. Because of the natural cork stopper, it is important to allow the interior and the cork to air dry completely before storing to prevent unwanted odors. The bottle is compatible with all standard 74mm bottle cages; however, verify that your cage tension is adjusted correctly to avoid scratching the surface of the bottle during insertion and removal.
