Hi All,
I’m fed up fiddling with bladders all the time, and would like to go back to bottles for most of my riding, but can’t seem to find the perfect replacement pack.
I’m a ‘hot’ rider, and would like to not have anything on my back. Ideally I’d like a hip pack (bum bag, fanny pack etc) with a bit of storage, must be at least a bit waterproof, with plenty of support. Must also fit a tube, tools, phone, mini pump and the usual stuff, although I tend to travel light.
I like the idea of the Camelback Delaney, but I don’t think it has quite enough storage space, and the pump might be an issue. If I can carry the pump, I won’t have to try and find the frame clips for it, and I can use one pump across all the bikes.
Is there anything else out there? Some of the wingnut packs look close, but I’d like to drop the bladder, and the shoulder straps look overcomplicated – just a waist strap will hopefully do the job.
