just bought one of there and is well worth the money. Popped my camelbak cherrie and can now see why everyone goes on about them.

Just got one myself as well. Well, about a month ago. £60 off merlincycles. Love the raincover.

What colour did you get? I went for the red.. Black just looked boring, and pukey green didnt quite do it for me..

cool, I was actually going to post a thread asking something about it.
I've got a Northface Dogfish (to small for long rides) and a Dueter Race Exp Air, which I find to big, even for my all day rides. My helmet also hits the top of the bag when going down technical downhills.

You guys have any idea how the Camelback compares?

Timely post looking to replace my ageing Blowfish now the zips are getting very tired. I was going to get a Mule but the NV Mule looks ideal.

i got the green and i actually really like it. Good size i had in it pump, shock pump, food, jacket, first aid kit, tools, phone and more and still had room for extra base layers if i wanted to carry them. The new nvis air flow system is great. Rode glentress on saturday when it was quite warm and wore a cotton t shirt and my back was practically bone dry at the end. Not sure how much better it is than the old system on the mule but to me it was worth the 55 pound i paid for it.

I lost one of the waist straps off mine and can't seem to find anywhere to buy a new one. Anyone know if you can buy them?

robyzf1 - I had the same problem and I spent a long time looking for a replacement, but couldn't find. I have to keep swapping it over from my HAWG.

Thought that might be the case. The worst thing about it, looking at a new mule yesterday, is that they close using velcro so could easily be attached. Rather pay for a new strap than a new camelbak
