Love my Osprey packs, but the bite valves leak on the hydration packs.

Poor Quality
Osprey seems to be going the way of most other gear companies: let's change things just for the sake of changing them, even if the old design was superior. The bite valve on my Hydraulics LT bladder developed a split and subsequent leak after less than a year of intermittent use. Super poor quality relative to the 2014 model Atmos 50 that I thru hiked the AT with years ago. Stop changing things just because!

Same Issue As Everyone Else - Leaks
Same issue as a lot of others, had it about three weeks and it worked fine. Then it started leaking. After a 10 mile run, I am soaking wet, which is fine in the summer when it's hot but once autumn came around, don't like being freezing cold. Returned the whole pack and bought a different brand.

Leaks!
As most other reviewers here, this thing takes two hands to use and if you don't twist close it leaks everywhere. Very poor design for active use.
