Vecto 2L Water Container
CNOC Vecto 2L Water Container Review
Tested and reviewed for bikepacking use
The Vecto is a 2-liter soft flask with a 42mm thread compatible with Sawyer and most squeeze filters. The wide slide opening makes scooping water from shallow streams effortless, and the TPU construction rolls flat when empty for zero-bulk storage.
Who Is the CNOC Vecto 2L Water Container Best For?
Bikepackers using Sawyer filters who need a lightweight dirty-water reservoir. If that describes your riding style, the Vecto 2L Water Container should be at the top of your shortlist. It sits in the Hydration category alongside 9other products we've reviewed.
How It Compares
At 80g and $18, the Vecto 2L Water Container is 21g heavier than the lightest option in this category (the Katadyn BeFree 1.0L Water Filter at 59g). The most budget-friendly option is the Nalgene Wide Mouth 32oz at $14.
The price-to-weight ratio comes in at $23 per 100g — a reasonable middle ground between performance and value.
What We Like

Watch Out For
- −Soft walls make it hard to squeeze with cold hands

The Bottom Line
