Same pack and tried a couple of bladders which were "ok" but in the end bought the proper one for the job.

I got it for £27 delivered from singletrack bikes from memory.

DrP,  the £6.49 Decathlon one is 1L and fits perfectly in my Evoc pack mate, really taken with the quality.

Is it this one nobeer? I've been wanting try one in mine but refused pay the 30 quid for the evoc one

Obviously the opening/closign flap sits in sideways but still fits?

Aye, that's the boy, fits perfectly sideways. I like those big fold over openings too, easy to clean.

Ah legend how do you attach the drink hose? I never got a clip or magnet with my pack

Looks ideal though great spot 🙂

It feed out the wee hole marked H2O and in through the back of the hip pocket, then I just tuck it in once behind the belt. Sits great, you could fit a wee rubber band or velcro strap around it, but it would be footery to get out to drink on the move.

awesome cheers for that - never actually looked at the back of it where the hose comes out, but makes sense

ordered one 🙂

plenty of water for anything but bigger summer rides now then 🙂
