Features a patented, roll-top leakproof closure and a 5-inch opening for easy filling and cleaning while ensuring a bombproof seal. Double radio-frequency welded perimeter endures extreme pressure and stress. Central baffle stops fluid slosh and keeps the SporTank in a stable, flat shape on your back. Screamer Valve delivers a huge flow of liquid so you don't interrupt your breathing pattern. Valve seal is tight and will not allow air back into tube. Made from FDA-approved tasteless, odorless, 14 mil polyurethane.

Strengths:
Small, easy on the back and good for short rides

Bike Setup:
Intense Tracer with stuff
Bottom Line:
Got the pack as $14 was hard to pass up for hiking and quick bike rides. Holds everything I need it to for the 1-2 hour ride and the 64 oz bladder works out well for the short trips (more than Camelbak hip style). Leaked a little from the bladder closure (roll type w. velcro) but not too much. Still prefer my Camelbaks for extended day rides (MULE) and epic (HAWG) adventures.
