Do you use the yellow loofa thing in your aerodrink or equivalent? (Page 2)

Don't use it - it takes up too much room.

I am also just not happy with the entire configuration. With or without yellow poofy thing, I (and my bike) get covered with splashes of Infinit...even when the opening is covered with Saran Wrap. I do live in the boonies on rather pot-holey roads...but the amount of splashage is out of control. I'm going back to the bottle cage zip-tied between my aero bars.

Like someone else said, a little piece of saran wrap over the top does wonders.

It is easy to poke a hole through to refill during a race, or take off an replace after a refill during a training ride.

The loofah part is good for scrubbing dead bugs and debris off your legs.

Don't use it but I just use electrical tap to make the lid solid.  If I need a refill I remove the whole thing.  I still typically only put water in them though as there still is some spillage.  I put the calorie drinks in bottles. 

I was like a camel on my half with two bottles and a full aero, but I didn't have to stop.  I know I'm no weight weinie, but there's a lot more fat around my waist than water weight in the extra bottles!  If I was fighting for seconds I wouldn't go that route.

I wash the whole thing in dishwasher. I put main part on bottom shelf, straws in silverware part, yellow thing on top shelf.

I often loose the black part that goes over the hole that is sliced in 6...I bought some of the same stuff at a craft shop and I make spares.

TorHans?

I ordered one from your shop but it didn't come in time to try for the IM AB this weekend

used it to scrub pots - never used it in the bottle - just the black rubber thing - which I had to replace when it went through the dishwasher and shrank oops.

However I most recently used the specialized bottle with the cover and like it better due to the flexibility of the straw.  I may just mount a regular bottle between my aerobars.....have not yet decided.

Thank you for the great idea with Saran Wrap. The yellow pouf is pointless IMO.  

x2  Found out the hard way.

Yes- TorHans.

I e-mailed this entire thread to them. They are loving it. 3 pages of how to make their "competitor's" product work when it doesn't really work all that well out of the box.

This is the stuff ad campaigns can't buy...

Here is a leak/shake test on another handlebar drink system I like better than Profile:

Almost no water is expelled even under violent shaking- much more than you would have on a bike except in a crash. Notice the only water leaving the bottle is the contents of the straw as the bottle descends violently.

Dropped full from 6 feet on a stepladder this was the leakage from this unit 30 seconds after impact:

And below is a look at their anti-slosh/anti spill baffle system that is still on-the-go fillable:

I'd used Saran Wrap only for a few months but the liquid would still slosh out the straw hole and pepper me w/Gatorade (well until was 2/3 full). With the yellow scrunchie thing, I've been dry even without the added wrap.
