The USWE MTB Hydro 8L is the hydration backpack designed for performance-driven MTB or gravel riders who seek a premium cycling backpack that stays put even in the gnarliest terrains. It features the bounce-free No Dancing Monkey™ 1.2 harness system with integrated elastic straps that don’t constrict your breathing or movement during intense activity. The technical NDM™ buckle ensures a secure closure and optimal fit. This 8-liter backpack is equipped with a main compartment for a hydration bladder and gear, as well as organizer pockets with zippers for tools, equipment, and snacks. An added bonus are the two external attachment straps where you can secure your jacket or armor. The included 3-liter Elite™ hydration bladder with a Plug-n-Play coupling has a sliding opening for easy cleaning and drying, and allows you to add ice to the bladder. It also features a smooth-functioning Plug-n-Play hose coupling for easy and secure handling, and comes with two hose clips to securely attach the drinking tube. The MTB Hydro 8L boasts ergonomically designed and ventilated shoulder straps that distribute the backpack comfortably and evenly across your shoulders, along with a ventilated back panel with wave-profile pads for optimal comfort and airflow. The backpack also includes reflective points for better nighttime visibility, because we don’t want you to get run over! A helmet holder bag is included – the mesh in the lower compartment allows you to carry a spare helmet with you.
