Reviews
It's not hot often or for long here in Portland, OR. I purchased these for a typical 3 hour ride and also used on longer rides. I absolutely hate these bottles. I used Camelback Podiums for years and recently have been using Purist bottles. The Camelback Podiums are very difficult to squeeze and do not keep my liquid cool for longer than any of my Purist bottles. Extremely disappointed. I left a couple of stars for the fact that they hold water and the locking mechanism works.
I honestly don't think my drink is any cooler in this bottle than in a 21oz uninsulated purist bottle. I'd used the podium bottles exclusively a few years ago and moved to the Purist bottles. You have to squeeze the Podium Chill really hard to launch the water into your mouth. The nozzle is less accurate than I remember how the Podium bottles pretty directly squirted water. I tried using it like a Purist bottle's nozzle but again, the plastic is too hard and I only get a sip. I ride road, mtb, and gravel and am pretty comfortable drinking in motion. These bottles have very little use to me, kinda sad.
This updated version was supposed to be easier to clean, but it is almost impossible to remove the valve assembly from the lid�and yes, mold grows in it if you ever put anything but water in it, don�t clean it instantly after use and don�t do what one friend does, which is keep the lids in the freezer.
This is the third Camelbak Podium Chill bottle I've owned. My first one is 10 years old and my second one is five years old. I figure that after 5 years they should be retired. I still have them though in my box of bike gear. I can't bring myself to throw them out.
I like these new bottles. While the valve is a bit harder to open and close, I am assured that nothing will leak out when I squeeze as ride. I like the ridges which make for easier gripping out of the cages. My only regret is that it did not come in an orange or a bright red (color of my Trek). I settled for the white. Great product Camelback!
I use ice in bottle and water stays cool for about 2 hours. Large bottles - front bottle on down tube easily accessible while riding and bottle on seat tube is a tight fit, but easily removable when stopped. Temps here are hot, and in 2 hours we're at 90 (easy) if we ride early. 3 hours in and the water will be pretty warm.
What can I say? It's a water bottle. It has a good 24oz capacity, insulates about as well as any other bottle I've used. But its best feature is the lid, which disassembles for easy cleaning. Considering buying more lids to use on my older Chills!

Fill 3/4, with cold water top off with ice and put in freezer for one hour. Water stays cool for 2 hours. Yes the top is tough to disassemble and clean once a season. Worth the time to get a cold drink on a 90 degree day. Never experienced any unusual taste from the bottle.
I stopped using the Camelbak bottles a few years ago. There was always trouble cleaning the mold from the valves. Camelbak has supposedly solved this problem with the new easier to remove jet valve. The smaller size (by 1 oz) is a little easier to handle than the previous model. I filled up one bottle with ice, topped it off with water, and my water was cool up to 2 hours in mid 90 degree temps. I filled up the second bottle with water and put it the freezer overnight. Topped it off with water before my ride and the water was ice cold when I reached for it after my first bottle was empty. The water tastes good also, not a plastic after taste like some bottles. For info-the Elite Custom Race cages are a perfect fit for these bottles. Nice snug fit, you won't lose a bottle, and no more rattles.
These are the only bottles I buy anymore. In the summer, they keep drinks cold for a fair long while, and in the winter, they don't freeze up. Cleaning has always been a pain, though, and this new nozzle design is much more easily disassembled for thorough cleaning/rinsing.
This bottle is a bit stiffer than the older design, but not horribly so for me. However, if you had squeeze problems with the older design, you may have an even worse time with this.
