Perfect for longer rides
I bought this as soon as you released it and took it on a mtb trip to Guatemala. First, it was a great small carry on for the plane - I could carry my water, book, jacket, and some snacks. But most importantly, it was exactly right for the rides. We were riding for several hours, so I carried my tools, phone, snacks, water bottle and small water bladder, and sometimes a light jacket. The phone pocket on the hip strap is well placed for accessibility and didn't get as dusty as I expected through the mesh. I'm 5'2", so the pack looks bulky on me, yet I never really noticed it was there. I didn't need to use the external mesh knee pad storage while riding, but I love that option and that it stows away. This is going to be the perfect pack for epic backcountry rides in the Giff.
Comfortable, stays put, does the job!
So far I've taken this on one ride and most of the time I forgot it was there. It didn't bounce around and when I needed to get into it, it was easy to slide to the front to unzip without taking it off. It has ample storage, looks cool for a hip pack, and is very comfortable. I think any rider who likes hip packs would appreciate this one. Specs say that it's water bladder compatible, but it's not super obvious how it's intended to do that so a product demo video or something like that would be great to clear this part up. Increased water resistance would also be great for a future version of this product.
Great Hip Pack
I used this all through Disneyland to carry battery chargers, phones, wallets, cords, hydration and everything else you can imagine. The 5L worked great and the belt was real easy to swap from a hip to a shoulder sling bag. I can't wait to use it hiking when I don't want to put on a back pack.
Solid day pack for riding!
Solid storage for medium to long rides. Plenty of room for snacks, tools, and quick repair items. I wish it came with a hydration pack. It was just a little tough to find the perfect size for this pack. Great for anyone starting or folks who have been riding for ages!
Comfy fit and lots of storage space. Lots of pockets to store stuff. Can fit a bladder and a water bottle on the side.
