[#4130632]

does anybody have/or used either? i currently have a mule nv 2011 which i think is far too big for what i need, it feels a bit to big for me and i end up stuffing more and more stuff in that i really dont need to take!

the evoc 10litre seems a nice slim design, would hold plenty im sure for 2-4hours rides

im also not finding the mule particularly comfy, especially on the lower back (but could be due to weight i suppose)....

also does anyone know if the 3l camelbak hydration reservoir will fit in a evoc cc10?

the back pain could be due to lack of core muscles?

i haven't usd the Evoc CC, but the Evoc packs are very well made and thought through.

nah really dont think its that, just carrying to much stuff and the bag seems quite big and loose on my skinny'ish frame....

anyone got any general thoughts on the evoc cc backpacks then?

Evoc was reviewed in MBR last month & came out pretty well.

I have just bought a new smaller bag which turned up today. I went for an Osprey Syncro 10. Seems to suit all my requirements. Haven't used it yet, but expecting good things.
Looks like it will take my 3l bladder without too many issues.

[url= http://velo-m.co.uk/accessories/backpacks/evoc-back-pack-10l.html ]link[/url] im using an EVOC at the moment and its far better then any pack ive used before, not 100% you would fit a 3L in there but a 2l fits like a glove

on the evans site, it seems to suggest they are 3l hydration compatible, but i dont know if that just means their own branded one...

looks wise the evocs winning, it looks really narrow and straight and doesnt stickout anywheres, really looks quite compact, where as the mules stickouts, and is generally quite bulky

I have the EVOC and use it with a 3 litre camelback bladder which fits fine. Space in the main compartment gets a bit tight when carrying the full 3 litres but it will fit rain jacket, spare tube, pump etc and a bit of food no problem.

Stretchy is that the 10 litre version? Is it comfy?

Yep, the 10 litre one. Barely know its there even with a full 3l bladder.
