Pros
Great size and hugs the body great without the 'backpack' feel.
Cons
None. This does exactly what you would expect it yo.
Review
The smaller version of the Octane 16+ for me is much more suited for those after work and 3-4 hour bike trips. It had great side pockets around your hips for quick access to your energy gels or what you need at hand. Storage in the big pocket has enough room for trail medkit, car keys, cell phone, etc. Overall this is a great day excursion hydration pack.
