Battle of the Bottles: Winner!

August 8th, 2024 | by Keaton Smith

All of us at Bivo are athletes who love a little competition…and we had so much fun with the Battle of the Bottles challenge! 

Thank you to everyone who participated and submitted images of their Bivo displays. Every display looked amazing, but one display really stood out.

Congratulations to Omafiets in Alexandria, Australia for winning the Battle of the Bottles.

This team went above and beyond to create a fountain-like display of Bivos and placed it front and center at their counter.

Congratulations to Omafiets in Alexandria, Australia for winning the Battle of the Bottles.

Omafiets’ head mechanic TJ and Chris worked together to design this ever-flowing display. 

“When we saw the competition email come through, I immediately thought of a display that captured the flow of the bottle. WIthout seeing it in action, it's hard to appreciate what makes Bivo different from other bottles (and why it's such a good bottle for cycling).

Our initial idea was to have a "magic tap" fountain, with a clear pipe supplying the water up through the nozzle. TJ made a couple of prototypes using a pond pump from the local hardware store, however we couldn't quite get the water to flow diagonally along the tube in a way that looked realistic. That's where the wooden hand came in - it conceals the hose that goes into the back of the bottle, and also serves to model use of the bottle, while giving a pure stream of water that really makes the bottle look great.

The cube plinth with the signage came at the last minute when I was trying to figure out where to put the reservoir. The Bivo website already had some great graphics, so I converted them to metric (nobody here understands ounces), printed them out, and we were done!”

    When we launched our tall 21oz insulated Trio, it was clear people were loving the cold water. The only problem was the bottle didn't quite fit in everyone's bikes. So, we launched a slightly smaller bottle: the 17oz Trio that's a perfect fit for smaller bikes and full suspension mountain bikes.

    Keaton met with Melissa Valliant from Beyond Plastics to discuss the hazardous impacts of plastic overconsumption and what we can do to get involved in the solution.
    The winner of the Battle of the Bottles is announced! Congratulations to one retailer in Australia that went above and beyond to make an excellent Bivo display.
