Date Reviewed: April 29, 2008 | | Favorite Trail: | Monte Sano | | Duration Product Used: | 6 months | | Price Paid: |
$60.00 | | Purchased At: | Bicycles, Etc. | | Strengths: | This Dakine pack is designed so beautifully and is a good fit for a woman's frame, particularly a small one like mine. There are pockets and straps for everything you need to carry on a 2-3 hour ride (including a soft pocket for cellphone, glasses, or music). There are straps on the back if you need to strip off a layer and carry it with you, or want to keep up with your armor. But what I like best is the reservoir. The cap is easy to remove, and the tube unclips from the main reservoir body to make it easy to take out and clean. I have a plaid version that looks pretty hot, too. | | Weaknesses: | Haven't found one yet. | | Similar Products Used: | Camelbak, Deuter. I have become disenchanted with the Camelbak products since they have changed the reservoir setup. I hate the cap that cross-threads whenever you try to screw it on, and it's ridiculously large and hard for a woman's small hands to pry off. Deuter is a fine product for road biking, but not enough storage for an MTB adventure. | | Bike Setup: | Ellsworth Truth in purple | | Bottom Line: | This pack is a great value, you'll be happy you bought one for your girlfriend or wife, especially since no one else will have a cool pack like this in a trendy fabric. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |
