Platypus Big Zip Evo alternate shutoff

[emmagator]

Looking for an alternative shutoff switch and bite valve that will fit. Seems the hose is 5/16" diameter. Anyone know of another valve that will work? Mine leaks, even when shutoff and i want to try something different.

I may move away from Platypus. My buddy has a Big Zip also, that is leaking and both of our internal baffles have ripped. Mines a year old.

Anyone?

I run the hydraPak bladders and valves, hose diameters are different but I use an older platypus filtration system with a disconnect so I can fill the internal bladder in my pack without opening it up and removing it. You may need to buy the entire hose from a different kit in order to swap to a different bite valve.
