Default V90 Cup Holder & Contigo

Not got the V90 just yet but already thinking about a new travel mug.

Anyone got a Contigo one and if so does it fit in the V90 cup holders?

Looking to replace my ageing mug with a Contigo West Loop.

Amazon Link Here

My Avex (made by contigo for Costco) fits without problem and from what it looks on the picture, this one is narrower at the bottom.

word of caution though, there is a rattly noise from inside the holder when you use it

Thanks the comment. So the one you have fits and it looks like the one I want is slightly narrower.

As long as it fits more easily than the BMW cup holders, right PITA at times!

Feel more solid and proper double walled. Keep stuff cold or hot for longer (although slightly smaller volume)

Though beware you might burn your tongue if you store boiling hit beverage (been there!l)
