[Closed] Anyone else suffered bladder problems ?

yes, i'm too lazy to clean them.
I use bottles whenever possible.

I've got an Antidote bladder that water will no longer pass through . Checked the tube , bite valve etc and it seems the problem is the valve at the bottom of the bladder . How do I unblock that ? Tried boiling water and blowing it . I know their stuff has a lifetime warranty but is it a bit churlish after 2 1/2 years ?

New one or old, what's the issue?
All carry a lifetime warranty don't they? I have replaced my old style CB bladder with a hydrapak one, when it died (punctured due to the kitchen sink like kit I insist on carrying). Though other most of the improvements of of the hydrapak, are now available on the new CB's.

See above your post for problem , something stopping water coming out of bladder ?

ahh missed your update as I posted.. Are you sure it the bite valve and not the pipe? The pipe has a liner that breaks away internally (especially if you constantly plug and unplug the pipe form the bladder or bite valve) and can block up the feed. If this is your issue, you can cut off the affected end but once it starts to go, I found it needed replacing.
