Airborne 3L Hydration Pack

Fussy packs that bounce around are a thing of the past with USWE's Airborne 3L Hydration Pack on the trail. This streamlined 3-liter pack claims a full bounce-proof fit while you ride, keeping things comfortable and streamlined while you hammer into slick rock gardens, and greasy root lattices alike. That's because it employs the award-winning NDM Race Suspension Harness that lays claim to zero bouncing on your back, while still allowing you to feel comfortable with free range of motion when you're booking it into technical sections of trail. The NDM system works by supporting you with super-stretch straps that secure across your chest, clicking together just above your sternum, keeping your pack higher on your back where it can comfortably rest across your shoulders.

This particular model of the Airborne keeps things minimalist, with a 2-liter hydration pack that leaves just enough additional space for a light shell, and essential tools. The included Hydrapak Elite bladder includes a slide-seal top that opens for easy filling, plus a plug-n-play connection system for easy disconnects and filling. The bladder itself is fully reversible for easy cleaning and drying, and (a favorite feature of ours) is fully dishwasher safe, allowing you to get rid of lingering flavors after you forgot to empty out last-season's water. The pack in itself is one we'd say is quite minimalist, but just in case you wanted to reduce its bulk even further, the external phone pocket can be unclipped from the bag, reducing its bulk even more and dropping grams, for those of us who are counting.
