Anyone tried one of these?

Is the storage on par with,say, the camelbak volt?

In general, any good?

Source packs come in lots of sizes. I have a Whistler (20L). I do like the bladders.

I have a 2L one I've owned for about four years now, used it in a couple of different packs, full width opening makes cleaning/drying ideal, quick connect hose means less faff with a dangling hose, and you can thread it through holes in packs more easily... I have managed to crack the connector on the bladder though, despite that its still working fine without any leaks for well over a year.

Like all my previous ones the hose did get some mould in after a while and had to be replaced, mostly down to the user being a bit slack, and going back to bottles most of the time again...

But yeah it's a good bit of kit IMO.

I'm still using one of these intermittently - excellent bit of kit.

edit to say: Have had to replace the mouthpiece - used camelbac ones as they have been handy to pick up when needed.

I like the osprey packs - had a problem where the lid wasn't sealing properly after 13 months of use, they sent me out a new one FOC.
