CamelBak Octane XCT Hydration Pack, 70oz

Bought 6 month ish ago and used quite a lot. The bag is comfortable and good quality, no question, but the water pocket gives a terrible taste to water. and once filled with water it does not leave much space for storage in main pocket

Pack is great, I used it in a spartan beast and it held up well. I was able to have quick access to snacks and gels. The hose it comes with is weak and I would suggest getting a sleeve cover for it and upgrading the snap on cover mouth piece. I think if camelbak put some silicon strips in the waist belt it would hold in place better and not ride up when running. That change and the hose swap make this a 5star product.

I was worried that this would be uncomfortable because of the larger side straps but found it to be even more comfortable than other hydration packs with small side straps (the ones around the waist). Easy to access supplements while on the run thanks to the pockets on those side straps. I didnt notice in the pictures before purchasing, but the chest strap and water tube clip can be moved up/down the shoulder straps very easily. Not sure Ive seen a pack that allows for this (or maybe they all do this and Ive never noticed). I appreciated how easy it was to adjust. Bladder loads from the side and it was so much easier than the top loading style (in my opinion).

Parfait pour les randonnées a vélo léger et sa respire les attaches au corp son parfait pour avoir un meilleur équilibre

This is the second camelpak that I purchased. The new design is more comfortable having the lower strap. I used to wear another belt for my gels and cell phone. Now everything fits well into this pack. The rear zippered pocket can hold your keys and enough storage for a running jacket. I only thing i am not a fan, is the threaded lid on the water bladder can look like it is threaded, but leaks if you dont check it carefully.

I’ve used this for runs and rides alike and it works great. I didn’t need to bring the kitchen sink so I’m happy with the small storage space. The bite valve works well, as does the on/off valve next to it. The pack feels sturdy and I expect it to last a long time. In the 10 hours of use I’ve put it through so far I’ve been happy with it.

Offert à mon mari pour pratiquer le trail en montagne super sac, super qualité! Je recommande !

I am 54 and I do really like this CamelBak but it is ever so slightly too big/long for me. I have the straps pulled all the way to the smallest length and i still wish it was maybe 1-2 shorter in length. It hits me right at that - it could be smaller but I can also deal with it area. Other than that it works great and is very comfortable. I also like the extra storage areas.

This is my first hydration pack which I use for mountain biking and trail running. It is very functional, the design is well thought out by the Camelbak people and quite frankly you dont even know its there on your back. Absolutely the best.

Great for really really long runs. Had to buy the Octane dart for short runs as it was half the size of this one.
