[#1858834]

I bought a new lezyne camelbak around 6weeks ago & the bladder is leaking already (right next to the hose, so not an easy fix).
can anyone recommend a relatively cheap, 3L replacement bladder that wont leak (from the hose or the bag) please?
online links esp appreciated. thanks 😀

Define cheap ?

I have only ever used camelbak, never had any problems.

Can't remember name of mine its a press zip kind of closure on top I think it has a lizard picture on it . It's very good and lifetime warranty will confirm what it is once home

Osprey bladders are good.

ebay shop. entire lezyne only cost £25... but yeh just to chance it I'm gonna send the bladder back to lezyne direct just to complain.

I ride pretty much everyday, so it'll get a lot of use.

The Deuter (Source?) ones are excellent, definitely the best I've used (including Camelbak and Platypus).

Better bite valve (locking as standard, no leaking issues)
Great opening system (full-width opening and more secure than the clippy/zippy Platypus system).
