Upgrade or replace your hydration setup with the Giraffe Bottle Tower Straw Kit — designed for helmeted drivers, endurance racers, youth karting, and high-performance daily use. This kit includes a flexible gooseneck, one-way valve straw, and a cleaning brush, all made from BPA-free, FDA & EU-compliant materials for safe, hygienic, repeated use.
It’s more than just convenience — even a 2% drop in hydration can reduce mental focus, reaction speed, and endurance during high-intensity activity. Whether you're racing in heat, doing long karting stints, or simply want safer hydration for young drivers, this kit keeps your drink close — and your performance on point.
✅ Recommended for kids and young kart racers — the low-effort sipping makes hydration easier without biting or sucking.
Key Features:
One-Way Valve Straw: Prevents backflow so liquid stays primed in the tube — no biting or tipping needed.
Helmet-Friendly Gooseneck: Flexible neck allows perfect mouth positioning during karting pit stops or endurance races — even with a helmet on.
FDA & EU-Compliant, BPA-Free: Food-grade tubing is safe for water, electrolytes, and non-carbonated sports drinks.
Kid-Friendly Design: Easier to sip than bite-valve systems — ideal for young kart racers and junior drivers.
Hydration = Better Performance: Studies show even 2% dehydration can impair focus and endurance.

Includes Cleaning Brush: Keep it clean with the included brush — replace every 3 months for best hygiene.
Replace Straw Monthly: Especially with daily use or sugary fluids.
Bottle & Bite Valve Not Included: Compatible with Tower, Tower XL, and Journey Giraffe Bottle systems.
Recommendations & Tips:
The check valve is not recommended for carbonated drinks, pulp-heavy juices, or thick liquids — simply remove it when using those beverages.
The modular straw system can be removed quickly, making it easy to refrigerate or swap bottles between uses.
