The updated Osprey Manta 28 hydration pack combines ample volume and great carrying comfort with the latest in functional hydration.

Osprey Hydraulics™ system sandwiches an anatomically shaped plastic sheet between a layer of nylon fabric and the reservoir back
Design conforms the reservoir to the back's shape even when full, resulting in a precise, stable and comfortable fit
HydraForm™ reservoir features a rigid spine/handle that stabilizes the water load and makes it easy to slide the reservoir into the pack
Zippered hydration sleeve is easy to access
Rigid spine/handle and large mouth make filling and cleaning the reservoir a snap
BPA- and PVC-free reservoir does not retain tastes or odors and features AquaGuard™ antimicrobial formula to help prevent bacteria and mold
180° pivoting on/off valve rotates in either direction for quick and easy flow control; magnetic sternum-strap buckle secures the bite valve when not in use
AirSpeed™ suspension incorporates a lightweight alloy frame and cross struts with a tensioned mesh back panel for support and flexibility
Biostretch™ harness is ventilated for cooling comfort; full hipbelt adds stability and load transfer
Panel-loading main compartment is spacious enough for a long day's worth of food, clothing and gear
Zippered top organizational pocket with key clip holds small items; zippered top pocket with soft lining helps keep sunglasses or other fragile items from getting scratched
Stretch-woven front shove-it pocket offers quick external storage and access; integrated patch holds a blinker light (sold separately)
Zippered side pockets, front pocket and hipbelt pockets carry small items within easy reach

Comments about Osprey Manta 28 Hydration Pack - 100 fl. oz.:

I'm impressed with the Osprey/Nalgene collaboration for the hydration system, it's all very logical and has worked well for me so far.
The pack is comfortable, the compression straps have not failed me yet and the weight rides on my hips. More than enough room to carry what ever gear I deem necessary (I keep adding weight to increase my stamina at altitude).

Comments about Osprey Manta 28 Hydration Pack - 100 fl. oz.:

A good, well designed and stable pack for mountain biking, I just wonder about how it will hold up in the long term.
This is my second Osprey pack, i had to return the first one because after a year of normal use, the bite valve cracked and started leaking and some straps broke. I can see that the bite valve on the new pack has been modified, so maybe it will not fail again. The problem is that unlike a Camelback, you cannot easily replace the bite valve on an Osprey, so I hope this one holds together. Also, the retaining straps slip and always need to be readjusted, it is a little annoying sometimes.

Comments about Osprey Manta 28 Hydration Pack - 100 fl. oz.:

I got this pack for the use that it is intended: Day Hikes and light trips. Worked great as a quick overnighter back to a friends house. Fell in love with this pack even more on my first hike to Beale Falls (aka Fairy Falls) this last weekend! The mesh panel really allows for air flow to your back, and pack doesn't get soaked in sweat. The waist belt did hold in some moisture, but not bad and dried quickly in the long run. For the size I got it held: snacks(nature bars, bag of fruit gummies, and some crackers), keys, bug sprays, inhaler, cell phone, long sleeve shirt, spare socks/underwear (you never know), and full water bladder. I still had plenty of room to spare! One of my best investments for hiking! Definitely better than hiking with a school style pack or an Alice Pack.
