Review on πŸŽ’ Mubasel Gear Insulated Hydration Backpack with 2L BPA Free Bladder - Ideal for Running, Hiking, Cycling, and Camping by Wayne Ohlrogge

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Affordable and comfortable, worry-free

This hydration pack was purchased to replace an identical unit that I lost after 18 long, hard months of running 60-70 miles a week in all conditions of wind, ice, snow , Rain. , thunderstorms and the other end of the last 100 degree heat wave. You'll notice that I've made a few changes, these aren't faults with the Hydrator, these are things I've learned along the way, like adding extra reflectors, flashing LEDs, etc. The phone holster is a brand new addition. So far it's working great, and that means you don't have to take off your backpack to take your phone with you (and that means the weight of my phone doesn't have to be on a jacket, pants, or flip belt). Also note that I taped any loose straps, which I learned from my time in the US Army. another fanny pack. The blister didn't have the usual bad chemical smell/taste, but I still followed her advice and washed it with mild soap until I couldn't taste it anymore. I've ridden it about 60 miles so far, 11-12 miles per run with no complaints. I also have some first aid supplies, spare headphones and a headlamp with me. What I don't like about it: I would like to move the straps so the pack sits lower on the back, but that doesn't bother me, and at this price point. The thing is, I'm not really worried about that. Will I buy another one? Absolutely. If interested: Phone case: https://amzn.to/2QFTa2V Flashing LEDs: https://amzn.to/2Qy82QQ Update: 06/14/2020 There was a leak in my bladder, I contacted Mubasel directly via Revain and they sent me straight away sent a replacement package and bladder, not just a replacement bladder. Outstanding customer support.
