go with an insulated bottle. at least one of these is bound to fit.

I have the 24oz novara, never tried to put it in the door. Its actually an insulated bike water bottle, and BPA free.

oh yeah.. and for the health freaks that are crazed about BPA.... metal containers aren't any better... they have ill effects as well... BPA free plastic is a much better option than metal... A metal with a coating like latex or some sort of rubber is a different story however.

Two things...

1) I would never call anyone wishing to protect themselves from something that disrupts their endocrine system a health freak.

2) Despite past research I have never heard of any issues with reusable metal containers, and I can find nothing to support your claim now. Please explain and support your argument with links.

I would take stainless over any kind of plastic any day. Also any kind of plastic or synthetic container tends to get funky smelling. Klean has a plastic cap and is also BPA free FYI.

That is not a reusable bottle, nor is it likely to be BPA-free (so even if you can refill it a few times before it cracks you shouldn't).
