Why We Like The 3L Hip Pack + 1.5L Bladder
Give the backpack the ol’ hip-check and hit a quick lap with the Evoc 3L Hip Pack. The Hip Pack is designed not only to get your gear lower on the bike for better handling but also to keep your back from getting swampy under the summer sun. Adjust the Venti Flap system to add even more ventilation and precision fitting, and take a sip from the on-board 1.5-liter hydro-reservoir to keep up on hydration and cooler core temperatures. Evoc outfitted the Hip Pack with a top zippered compartment for the reservoir and side hip pockets for snacks and valuables. Out front (or we guess, out rear), you’ve got the zipper tool pouch, which holds essential repair items to ensure you get home from trailside repairs and flats. Internal mesh compartments keep the tools organized and stable.

Excellent for shorter rides
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
I’ve been using a backpack w/3L hydration bladder for many years and decided to give the hip pack a shot for shorter/cooler rides. I drink a lot when I ride and carry a ton of bike repair items, and a SPOT gps so I was worried about space. The two side pockets took my multi tool, links, plug, and keys. The spare tube and pump were a bit much so I ended up getting straps and keep those on the bike frame now. The bladder when full takes up nearly all the space in the main compartment. My SPOT fits in the front pouch without much room to spare. Hydrapak bladders are always amazing, I won’t buy anything that doesn’t use this system. My only complaint is the hose is about 1-2” short, I kinda have to tilt my head down to drink. If you have a tall torso this will be a problem and you’ll want to find a way to extend the hose. The hose also has a magnet on it that securely keeps it at your side on the bag. It took a few rides to blindly and quickly place the magnet after taking a drink, but like clipless pedals, it just takes some use to get it down subconsciously. The other thing I like about using the hip pack is my back does not get drenched in sweat (as it does with a backpack), when riding in cold weather this keeps you much warmer.
