I realised that we pay so much attention to match the colours between frame, different components, tires, saddle, bar tape, and maybe also clothing and helmet and then I simply put on two randomly coloured water bottles and go riding
After searching a bit I couldn't find any bottles to match my bikes colour scheme (black, grey and some neon color between green and yellow). Do you know any brand making simple water bottles in many different colour schemes? What do you usually use?

you can customize Spz bottles and although I never used on they seem really good
Tacx has several different bottles in many colors. And they are cheap.

Water bottles get scratched up and tossed eventually. I use whatever I got for free on m last bike trip.

One of my good friends just started a water bottle company specifically for this reason, and for the weight conscious.

You'll find they are extremely well constructed (no taste/odor plastic), the best spout mechanism i've ever used, and just a really well thought out product. He's also considered the "scratching" factor, as well as the ease of putting them back into the cage quickly/easily during races (hence the shape). I'm not just saying that because he's my friend. They are seriously fantastic.

Smoke Camelbak Podiums will fit well there, I believe. And they are the best bottles I've ever used.
