Does it get in the way of running? I hate it when my elbows hit the bottles. Any reason it would be uncomfortable while riding/running with horses?

The water bottles don't hit my elbows and I have long arms. I couldn't tell you about riding I don't ride with them.

Turn the bottles so they curve in - then you won't hit them. A bit harder to pull out while running but not a big issue.

I haven't had that issue. I've worn them for 3 hour runs. Now the part that touches the top of the ear to wrap around the back get just a tad tender, but I have a feeling that is impacted by my winter hat pushing on it. Not at all a deal breaker for me. Overall, they are a great buy!

When full there may be a little splashing, especially if you hit a big bump. Once I have taken a few sips I don't notice any splashing. My roads are pretty bumpy. Overall I recommend using the aero bottle in all of the tri distances & training. I rarely ever take my tri bike out with out this bottle on.

Hi....absolutely...I use mine for marathon training and trail running...The bottles are very easy to access and replace after you drink. Good luck..

I have a thoroughbred with a "shark fin wither", I use a treeless saddle pad underneath it and have not had any issues. After many rides the saddle is becoming shaped better for her wither and fits better and better the more I use it.

I can't stand up and pedal on mine; it didn't feel sturdy when I tried. However, one style of riding I've used is similar to running while seated. I can pump my arms and legs in a running style, all the while seated. I've ridden over 400 miles now and love the convenience to exercise in my home.

Hi - apologies for the late response. We still have this problem. It's really not very comfortable.

That's a awesome question lol. I think you may be bent over to much causing your elbows to dig through the pads which aren't toThick. They are inexpensive enough to try in my opinion. Just make sure you have room on your bars.

It is difficult to avoid some spillage! I move quickly and usually that's ok. Incidentally, the bottle I had before this one had a better design and this didn't happen! I should have kept it and refilled instead! It may be intentionally designed this way, so you purchase more. It is so mild though, that it is ok if some spills out.

I would think it would be OK to use as long as it's on tight enough. We obviously had our dog's on too loose because she wiggled out of it twice! It should be fine for running because it does seem to be sturdy too. I hope this helps, and if you have any other questions, let me know!!!!

None. All terrible. I stopped a week into it because the pressure against my collarbone was too intense. I was worried about forming a bruise.

Organic vapor cartridges ought to stop that, yes. I have only used it for lacquer paints but I can tell you it gives me close to 100% protection in some pretty chemically hostile environments. It does a decent job of holding to your face when you move, and it puts up with mild facial hair. I have never worn it while running. Also I wouldn't use this for any type of 'tactical' event since it's not hard to have this come lose. It's made for painters / chemists / etc.

go ahead give it a shot ! In my experience it gets pretty difficult to eat ice cream while jogging - particularly the chocolate chip from Ben and Jerrys. You can try other brands and flavors. Generally speaking the spills make the handlebars and hands quite sticky and irritating.

I can drink while running with it, as far as the helmet, as long as the 1/4 inch hose can get in or under it, I should think so. you can spray with fingers from a distance into your mouth, or bite with teeth while in your mouth.....ive done both

I have not had this problem. As a matter of fact, there is no ridge opposite the side where you drink - there is an opening there as well as on the drinking side. The ridge is between the two openings, if that makes sense and I see no way your nose can hit it. Hope this helps. I love mine.

I found it so uncomfortable to wear, even wearing a different harness, that I didn't wear it long enough to be able to answer your question. I just used it slung over my shoulder. My husband thought it was very awkward. My other complaint is that it is very hard to store because a tubular metal arm sticks out and cannot be moved, so it takes up a lot of room. But I find the sprayer itself is very adjustable from a fine mist to a steady steam, and I haven't found that to be the case with other sprayers I've owned.

Eh... not really. I personally have to stop and take the thing off. I usually can't see the screen if I'm running in sunlight, and I have to wear it with the screen on the outside of my arm (as opposed to the side closer to my body) to prevent it rubbing in my elbow crease or against my chest. This means I can't see it without loosening it and turning it towards me. It's still probably the most durable and functional armband I've come across. I have reached the conclusion that there's just not a perfect one out there.
