As the sweaty weather continues I’m reminded of how much I hate wearing a pack most of the time. My frame won’t take a bottle and I’m a 1.5 litre of water per ride person.

Any recommendations and experience? Are they any better?

They make you look like a fashion disaster/American.

^ wing nut hyper plus lots
Great bag, keep trying others (including for evening rides a small bumbag and waterbottle combo) and going back to my wingnut

Sorry for the slight hijack but can you use any bladder in the Wingnut or does it need a dedicated one?

wingnuts are good

I shove various other bladders into mine – ones from hydrapak and one is camelbak I think (do they really both end in “ak” or am I becoming a marketing guru ? 😳 😥 )

Cheers

I have one of these http://www.roughrideguide.co.uk/Hyper-2.5-colour-option-of-all-black-or-red-black.html
This is the best bladder I have used with it http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/camelbak-antidote-lumbar-reservoir/rp-prod86749

You just want to look like me, eh?!

If I hadn’t ripped the straps off mine in COte Street, you could have tried them on for size.

As it stands, the wingnut was a great design, but poorly executed – poor workmanship, cheap materials, not many features, and pricey. But…not much more out there it seems..
I had asked this a few months ago.

Edit – here you go you lazy sausage…
