Hydration backpacks are the core product from Camelbak: a reservoir in the backpack, connected to a tube over the shoulder. This lets you drink while riding without taking your hands off the handlebars.

Camelbak hydration backpacks

Depending on the model, the capacity ranges from compact versions for short rides to larger systems for long tours. Extra storage space holds tools, food and clothing.

A bite valve on the mouthpiece prevents leaks, and the tube can be fixed to the shoulder strap.

Tip: Open the reservoir after every use and let it dry; do not leave it filled in the backpack. In a damp reservoir, a film forms within a few days that is hard to remove.
