Camelbak H.O.S.S.
Description: (from
camelbak.com)
Our most technical cycling system, the H.O.S.S. features our NEW D.V.I.S. back panel technology - a dynamic, self-adjusting, ventilated panel that moves the pack away from your back. Features a roll-top waterproof main compartment to keep your gear dry in the worst weather conditions. Comfortably holds 100 oz / 3L reservoir, and raises the bar for hydration and mountain biking.

| Pros | HUGE capacity for all your stuff PLUS a 3 liter hydration bladder. Special soft pocket for sunglasses, clip for keys, zippered pouches, and exterior straps for your helmet and body armor. Ventilated back panel keeps your back cool while giving you a feeling of balance. Snug fit with tons of adjustments. | | Cons | Weight - this thing weighs more than 3.5 pounds with an empty bladder! Fill the bladder and you're looking at nearly 10 pounds without any gear. A bit spendy but worthwhile if you like to haul a lot of gear on the trail. | | Verdict | I love this hydration pack. Up until now I haven't been a fan of Camelbak-type products but this thing is way too comfortable and fits all the stuff I need on the trail. My first ride I schlepped an 8mm video camera and DLSR still camera plus a pump, sunglasses, and clothing and I hardly knew I was wearing a pack. | | Recommended for: Anyone |
