[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love the pack, but the cargo space is limited. Enough to maybe carry a top layer, but not much else. Still exactly what I was looking for for a MTB pack.

Less Cargo Capacity Than Expected And Hard To Load
I bought this pack for mountain bike riding in cooler weather to carry an extra layer in addition to a rain shell. I didn’t want a larger 20+ L pack, so thought this one, cargo capacity initially listed at 7L, would be perfect. Bottom line, I can fit a Gore jacket OR a thermal layer into the very hard to load storage compartment. Overall, I rated it a 3. But, there is a wide range of good and bad features, so here are details. Fit is excellent, comfortable on first use and 2 months later. Does not shift around on technical descents. Waist belt is small but well designed (does not loosen). Appreciate chest strap can be adjusted easily. Well designed pockets. Tool pocket with mesh sub-pockets. Smaller pocket for keys with lanyard. Cargo area for water also has a mesh pocket Very hard to load the pack- both water and any “cargo”. Seems to be due to excess flex in the back panel. Poor design on the outside straps, aka helmet carry. The location, right above the side mesh pockets makes it so very hard to get things in/out. Again, hard to load even a light jacket into the outside area under the tool pocket since these straps do not have clips which open.

Perfect Lightweight
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my husband to use while mountain biking. It is perfect for him because it is lightweight but still has room for his bike tool, pump, flashlight and first aid kit.

Its 9l If You Count All Your Pockets
Bought it knowing it wasn't close to 9L, but even then was disappointed in the lack of expansion.
