About the original
The Specialized Big Mouth 24oz is a BPA-free plastic cycling bottle with a wide-mouth screw top, ergonomic body that grips standard bottle cages, and a high-flow MoFlo valve that Specialized rates at up to 50% more flow than comparable bottles. Specialized Bicycle Components was founded by Mike Sinyard in Morgan Hill, California in 1974 and remains one of the largest bicycle manufacturers in the US. The Big Mouth has been the company's best-selling bottle for years, sold at dealers worldwide as a functional accessory rather than a fashion piece. The Supreme Spring/Summer 2015 version is a Big Mouth bottle in red with an oversized "Supreme" wordmark in white across the body; the bottle itself is standard Specialized production.
