FAQs
Does this work with non-Evoc hydration bladders?
It is designed for standard Evoc tubes, but it may fit other brands if the hose diameter is compatible with the clip's retention loop.
Can I use this with an insulated tube?
No, this model is specifically stated as being incompatible with insulated drinking tubes due to their increased diameter.
Is the magnet strong enough for rough terrain?
Yes, it features an extra-strong magnet specifically designed to hold the tube securely during high-vibration activities like mountain biking.
How do I install the base piece?
The base piece is designed to slide or clip onto the standard webbing found on most backpack shoulder straps and hip belts.
Will the magnet affect my electronics?
While the magnet is strong, it is generally safe around most modern outdoor electronics, though it is best to keep it a few inches away from sensitive magnetic compasses or credit cards.
Troubleshooting
Tube keeps falling off the magnetic dock
Ensure the tube-side piece is pushed fully onto the hose and that the docking area is free of dried mud or grit.
Clip slides along the shoulder strap
Tighten the clip's attachment point by weaving it through a tighter webbing section or using a small zip tie as a stopper if the strap is particularly narrow.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your clip, slide the base piece through the webbing of your backpack strap or hip belt and lock it in place. Ensure the second piece is firmly seated on the hydration tube at a height that allows you to drink comfortably without overextending your neck. For care, simply wipe the magnet with a dry cloth after muddy rides to ensure maximum magnetic strength. Store the device in a cool, dry place when not in use to maintain the integrity of the plastic components.
