Review on ๐ŸŽ’ ROCKRAIN Hydration Backpack with 2.5L BPA Free Water Bladder - Ideal for Cycling, Hiking, Running, and Skiing by Edwin Kreps

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great for mountain biking

The build quality of the backpack itself seems decent, from a material that I think is a quality you only see from more expensive brands. There's plenty of storage space with useful nooks and crannies. On a typical trip, I can stash a spare tube, small pump, basic tools and a first aid kit, and there's enough storage to even fit a pair of shoes. There are two adjustable straps that fasten around the rider's chest and abdomen. You can also point the drinking tube at your left or right shoulder. There is a special clip on the right shoulder strap that keeps the tube in place so it doesn't fly around while riding. The only issue I have with this hydration pack is the bladder. Once the drinking tip didn't close properly and the remaining water spilled out when I put the backpack on the car seat after a ride. When I got home, the backpack and its contents, as well as the back seat of my car, were completely soaked. recommend it to other riders. Depending on how much you drink during your trip, I recommend ONLY filling your bladder with the amount of water you need. Otherwise it can be difficult. Once I made a mistake and filled my bladder completely, and it seemed like I was driving down the path with a baby on my back.

Pros
  • Handy item
Cons
  • Hard to say
