Camelbak Issue

Doesn't vaseline break down the plastic/rubber? I've heard that can be a problem.

No idea - he's been doing it for a while and hasn't mentioned that its destroying anything (he's usually quite clued up about that sort of thing). I did wonder that myself.

I did smear some round the edges of the lid before last nights ride, however I got back quite late and haven't tried to empty the bladder yet, I'll let you know if its any easier.

I usually lay mine flat on the counter and pinch the tube while trying to unscrew the lid. Seems to make it easier.....

The vaseline seemed to make it worse not better! Either that or I did it up really tight this time
