Review on OGIO 122101_03 Black Dakar Hydration by Juan Russell

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Awesome hydration bag

If you're tall, read this: This bag comes in two adjustable sizes. I was minutes away from returning it when I decided to play around with the strap connection points. You look and are instantly fit. I later found that the product card demonstrates this, but I don't always read instructions for things like bags. I mention this primarily because I've found reviews of other Ogio hydration packs where people have complained that the straps are too small. I plan to write a longer and more detailed review when time allows, but in short: this moisturizing wrap is amazing. I ride sport bikes in the canyons and this backpack is perfect. That's more than I expected. Actually I wanted something smaller. The hydration system (bladder and tube) is as high quality as it gets. There are so many conveniences in the bag and it holds the weight well. I replaced the tubes with Osprey and Platypus products. I also equipped it with neodymium magnets; one on the right strap and the other on the handset. The cold liquid in the bladder stays cold due to the insulation in the bladder pocket. The bag is also quite durable. I have a Dainese Laguna Seca 4 one-piece suit with a large speed bump. The backpack fits comfortably because it sits lower on the back. Highly recommended.
