im after a big un..
got a hawg,but want one what will carry more,for big days out ive got planned for this year..
anyone using and can reccomend one?
as in water volume or carrying volume or both?
I use an Osprey Talon 20 for big days out. More than enough room for a 3 litre reservoir, food, tools, clothing, first aid kit etc, and very, very comfortable on the bike
Camelbak HOSS ftw
Do you really need / want to carry that much stuff?
I generally find I end up packing stuff but never use 80% of it, even on big rides.
I find its better to stock up along the way.
What you got in mind, I have some big loops planned for the peak too.
If blower is guiding their are prerequisites that involve carrying certain kit tho
Was there a thread on this earlier that disappeared? If so then I'd recommended a Dakine Apex, very big and nicely organised. Have a few issues with the bladder bite valve but other than that perfect. I wrote a quick review of it on my site if you're intrested in my thoughts on it.

There is also Camelbak The Don but that also has a helmet carrier which migh not appeal to you as much, however you can get it for less than £50 if you shop around.
pie face yeah want to do some big loops soon in the peaks,or lakes,now its getting lighter...bit more fitness needed for them though,are you doing some?
got one sorted now,an evoc freeride tour..
cheers everyone,
although i thought i had a thread of this somwhere else 😕
