Review: Solid Bite Valve, but not Hydrolink-able - Solid piece of gear from Source. I wanted a 90° bite valve. I was using a Camelbak Hydrolink with with thier big bite valve. Well this Source valve is NOT compatible with Camelbak's Hydrolink quick connect piece. The Helix, and I'm assuming their Storm valve too, do not have a long enough tube that goes into the Hydrolink connector. It will go in but WILL NOT lock in. Just a slight pull and it will come out. I removed the Hydrolink quick connect piece from the tubing and inserted the Helix into the tubing. Works great.
Review: Great product! - The rotate flow control and bite valve is really good quality. Especially compared to those cheaper ones that either don’t flow, taste weird, or leak.
