Bottom Line:
Tore up my knee pretty good the other night, low speed endo. Anyway, I rinsed off blood and debris, forgot I had a first aid pack, picked up what was left of my Giro helmet and rode home. I needed some larger bandaids and opened the pkg when I got home (15 min or so later). The bandaids were good sized, BUT, they didn't stick at all. It's a good idea, but, the pack needs some quality bandaids, the flex type are pretty good and I will replace / refill the pack with them. For all day trips and trips with kids, you need something more than what this pack has.

Strengths:
Easy to Carry, Excellent when you need firstaid, designed for us'ens in mind.
Everything you need (less than amputation) to patch up from a nasty spill on road or trial. This is a very cheap insurance policy. I can easily give five Muskrats to Brave Dudes for their stuff.

Bottom Line:
This is a product that is a must for all types of riders. this kit has all the essentials for treating any types of road rash on the spot. Recently a friend of mine wiped out hard, and the kit was able to take care of a gash on his forearm which was at least 3/16 of an inch deep. No matter if it is a simple scratch or a massive cut, this pack can take it all.
