I have a camelback, i think its a 70oz, they have great construction. Not a tear on the thing after a year. Wash it up and it looks new. Just go with the brand name water dealy and you'll be happy.

Call the quadshop and get a SRC camelback from Jeff. It was designed by the best XC bike rider of all time. I have one and it fits over or under a chest protector. It's by far the best one I"ve used...

Jeff is the only person i know of that carries them besides SRC..which stands for Summers racing components...

I bought a hydra-pack from GI Joes for $30 bucks. Holds 70 oz, in the bladder and has two other pockets for the rest of my chit. I have had it for 'bout three years and havent had a problem yet.
The brand name is "Outdoor Products". Out here on the left coast a camel back of comparable capacity would have run me over $70.:eek: Their chit aint that great, and they care more about the environment than they do about the folks who use their products if ya get my drift;)

edit: i dont know what i did before i had it..by far the best $30 ive ever spent

The SRC one is a 100oz.
The bad thing about Camelback is they give money to the Sierra Club which as most of you should know is reponsible for shutting down riding area's!:mad:

I have a Hydrobak or something I got at the local Honda shop. The mouthpiece on it sucked, so I picked up a replacement Moose bladder (70oz) and it works great now.

I want one that leaks so it'll keep me cool in the race. Damnn these hot asss Texas summers.

I dunno... I don't want to help that gay sierra club and I also don't want any extra weight on me when racing...
