    Diameter of 40oz hydrafask is 3 1/2 inch and I believe I.D. of bottle pro is 3 7/8 inch.

    DIY Maxtrax mounts.

    20160821_151417.jpg

    20160821_203656.jpg

    This 14" strap hinge amazingly has the two outer holes 10 9/16" apart center to center which just so happens to be the EXACT distance the Maxtrax holes are spaced.

    That left the center hole for mounting to the rail with a 3/8" hex bolt and T-slot nut.

    Wasn't sure if was worth the price but after getting one as a gift ended up buying couple more . With ice in it keeps cold for very long time . In Hawaii you see a lot of people using it.

    I can usually use the same ice for around 3 days. Mainly because I have the straw lid so there's a lot less if any hot air going into the cup while using it. I love it and use it every single day.

    the Takeya brand they sell at Costco works great. Two for $35 if I remember right. They are big and the ice lasted all day outside in 110F heat. I was shocked. Even when the outside was hot to the touch because I left it in the sun the inside was cold.
