Great Pack, Great Bladder, Terrible Mouthpiece (Helix)
I love the pack - the design, pockets, zippers are perfect for most rides.
Made from quality materials.
Bladder is easy to clean, very slick inside, heavy plastic... where the hose connects to the bladder output is not at the very bottom of the bladder, so there's always a little left in the reservoir that you can't get to.
The mouthpiece has lots of issue at the design level. You can take apart the mouthpiece to clean by opening it half way then pulling the piece out of the housing... unfortunately this happens all the time while trying to open it fully to drink, especially with gloves. The mouthpiece would fall out into my hands, then the open hose would dump all the reservoir on the trail. I had to swap out the mouthpiece with storm valve, but also had to change the hose because the helix housing is permanently attached to the hose it comes with... so add another $30s for the hose, Quick Connect, and Storm Valve.

Une belle découverte
Un achat suite à un test réalisé par vitalmtb et de très bons échanges avec la société source et hop me voilà en possession de ce produit.
Il inspire de suite la qualité et il est très facile d’utilisation. Les poches sont en nombre suffisant.
Testé avec la poche à eau. Le passage du flexible est très bien fait et on s’en sert sans soucis.
Par contre j’ai trouvé que la sacoche avait tendance à glisser vers le bas du dos mais à confirmer!
Car la poche d’eau était pleine, les sangles de maintien neuves sur coup elles accrochent peut être moins bien malgré le système pour compenser cela (petites sangles de rattrapage).
Mais très content pour le moment.
Je recommande.

Hipster Ultra 5L Waist Pack
The pockets on the side make easy access to commonly used tools. One thing I'm still getting use too is the way the flap on the back uses the hooks to stay closed.
Its a nice idea but makes it trickier to get to the main zipper compartment. Sometimes I have to take it off to get inside, I think it needs a zip on the outside for a phone for easy access.
