The next time you’re bombing down your favorite single track, strap this CamelBak to your back, and enjoy that last bike loop before sunset.

The CamelBak M.U.L.E is an essential component during my rides. With an ample amount of storage and overflow space provided, I can load it with water, extra tubes, tools, and consumable fuels.

The M.U.L.E comes loaded with a 100 oz reservoir, which can last for hours. Inside is an insulated reservoir pocket which keeps your liquids cool.

It also has a sternum and waist strap to keep extra weight secure to your back and stable on rocky downhill sections.

Some nice extra features include weather resistant zippers and a MP3 pocket for your audio devices.

Cost: $90.00 | Where to buy: Moosejaw
