The pack is nice and lightweight, sits well on my back and shoulders. The bladder was a disappointment with a small filling hole, smelly plastic, and very strange connection to the hose - cumbersome at best, prone to problems at worst. I had to substitute another bladder. Part of the disappointment was that my friend’s several-year-old, similar design High Sierra pack has a slide top bladder that looked much superior.
Pros: The pack is good - small and light. Chest and waist straps keep it from bouncing around (I use it while biking). Cons: Bite valve leaks badly. My older High Sierra's valve lasted several years before going bad. Seems the quality went down.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great access to hydration while riding. Encourages drinking! Poor design- the opening is awkward to pour water into, and is difficult to drain. There is no way to dry the bladder between uses; I expect it will get yucky quickly. Last one was much better but valve started leaking and there was no replacement valve! Had to buy a whole new pack.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been using this product for my long bike rides and hikes. It has a 2 liter water pouch. Not the easiest to fill but none of them are. Excellent construction, one pocket for storage. Light weight, Small size, basic storage. Solid product for the size and price. If you need more pockets for storage or larger water storage, this is not for you. This product covers the basics very well.
Pros: Easy To Carry, Good Capacity, High Quality, Lightweight, Stylish
