Bottom Line:
I went for this pack based on price. It was my first venture into a pack even though all of the guys I ride with have been using them for ages.
For the price there was no competition. I figured for the money if I didnt like having the extra weight on my back I would take to much of a hit.
As it turns out having the weight up high on my back wasnt a problem at all. Only one major problem, the bite valve NEVER stops leaking.
I have used the pack three times and each time most of my H2O goes streaming out the valve as I ride. Its really annoying and happens no matter how I position the valve on the pack. Its going back!!!!
Overall a high quality product that is killed by one small detail. Its a shame.
