M.U.L.E.

Theres a reason this is one of Camelbak's bestselling, longest running packs: its got everything you need, and nothing you dont. The M.U.L.E. has a narrow gauge design that keeps it light and maneuverableso even when its fully loaded for a day of mountain biking, it wont get in your way. The latest edition is built around the brand new Crux reservoir, which is even easier to load and refill, and delivers more water with every sip. Since Camelbak launched the first M.U.L.E. in 1996, mountain bikers have been telling us that it hits the sweet spot of size vs. storage: its lightweight, but big enough to carry three liters of water and a days worth of snacks and gear. Over the years, weve also added air channels to keep your back cool, universal helmet hooks, and clever compartments for stashing tools, keys and electronics. The latest version also features a magnetic tube trap that snaps easily into place, so you can hydrate without taking your eyes off the trail.
