Review on 🚴 Optimized for SEO: Osprey Sylva 5 Women's Bike Hydration Backpack by Fred Meeks

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Fast and easy perfection

The Osprey Sylva 5 is perfect for our quick and easy hikes. If all you need is hydration, some nutrition, an extra layer of clothing, or a bike repair kit, then much more than this 5 liter backpack is overkill. re will move quickly. I don't want to get bogged down with an all-day package (which always tempts me to pack more than I really need). I just want to stay hydrated on the go, run a few miles, and finish my workout. And moving fast in Sylva 5 is a pleasure. As with the women's Osprey packs, the designers really know how to contour the straps and the shape of the torso and waistbelt to comfortably fit the female figure. The mesh carrying system is particularly well suited to keeping your back cool on hot days. And the backpack is thin enough not to affect the aerodynamics of my (rather upright) road bike. In fact, I prefer wearing a Sylva to fiddling with water bottles knowing we're driving on a track where I don't like taking my hands off the wheel.

Pros
  • Easy to use
Cons
  • I'll be silent
