Date Reviewed: July 2, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | FINS secret trail...I didn't tell you about it. | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$60.00 | | Purchased At: | backcountry.com | | Strengths: | This thing has pockets like crazy. Bladder sleeve is a full zip and super easy to access. Main bag has another bladder-sized pocket, but it might be a little snug to use for a second bladder. The accessory pocket has tube and pump pockets and 2 medium mesh pockets for tools, levers- the small stuff that gets lost easy. Need more? You got a helmet holder and 4 more zippered pockets on the outside. this the packrats dream bag. | | Weaknesses: | I don't see any yet- its the best bag I've used in 15 years of mountain biking. | | Similar Products Used: | Camelback MULE and Blowfish | | Bottom Line: | Some guys ride trails with a water bottle and seatbag.
Other guys take the entire darn tool bench. This bag is for that guy. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Date Reviewed: May 20, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | downhill manara | | Duration Product Used: | 3 months | | Price Paid: |
$100.00 | | Purchased At: | local shop | | Strengths: | very much like the camelbak but looks much better, and not everybody has one...
good pockets. love the velvety pocket for electronics and delicate stuff (will keep it safe from scratches, but if you're thrown on your back it won't help too much) | | Weaknesses: | feels a little stiff on the back, even when half-full.
did not take the shape of my body as other bags have. | | Similar Products Used: | camelbak, aztec (some local thing, don't bother) | | Bottom Line: | very nice pack, high stitch quality. still looks brand new after putting it through the dust, the mud, and all-too-often crashes.
great pocket arrangement. exactly the right capacity to keep me from taking too much stuff i don't need :-)
HOWEVER
i'm taking away an overall chili for comfort,
and i'm taking away a value chili because it costs a little more than competitive packs at local shops. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
