Zulo Hip Pack

This hip pack is great. I use it for dirt biking and mountain biking. I have the backpack from the same brand but was looking to take weight off my shoulders when riding. This does that while still keeping you hydrated. It carries about 2.5-3 bottles of water in the pouch and room for a phone, keys and an energy bar. When I get it muddy I just pressure wash it lightly and the dirt/mud comes off and looks somewhat new again.

I already own an USWE backpack which has been awesome for longer rides but I needed something for those shorter rides where I don’t need or want to carry the weight of a back pack and this does the job beautifully. It accommodates my phone, keys, tools and the bladder is just enough water for me for short rides. The band is wide and does a great job distributing the weight across my low back, waist and hips. The build quality appears to be top notch which is great for when I separate myself from my bike. Which happens more than I care to admit.

Desert mountain terrain and tropical rainforest hiking. Plenty of water and cargo space. Light weight and confortable on waist. Works for me

My wife wears this for longer rides. It does not hold as much gear as her other bum bag but the other does not have a liter of water in it. So there is a trade off, I am scared to put too much in with the bladder so as to not puncture it. But it will hold the bare necessities and keep you hydrated. Comfortable well built.

I bought this for my husband because he is a ride leader for the high school mountain bike team and this is what he said; This is exactly what I was looking for! Its so small yet so big! I can't believe all the pockets! Also the fact that it holds a liter of water. Worth the money! I am so glad that I bought this for him. He has wanted something like this for a long time.

Absolutely love this thing. Have the USWE backpack, but hate having something strapped to my back. Now that is getting warmer out Im getting much more thirsty than I get in the winter time so I need a way to carry more water besides a squishy 8 oz thing in my pocket. This allows me to carry 34 oz of water and extra tools and my phone all on my hip without even really feeling it at all. The water tube is extra handy as well. The most comfortable out of all the waist packs I've tried. My only negative is the magnetic clip doesn't stay on very well and I almost lost it on my first ride. What I ended up doing was poking two holes in the nylon belt, drilling two holes in the clip, and then using a little zip tie to attach it permanently to the strap. Now that thing doesn't move I don't have to worry about losing it. Get this you won't regret it.

Updated: I submitted a warranty claim to the manufacturer of the pack. They advised that the hydraflssk has it's own "beyond lifetime" warranty and directed me to submit a claim with them. I submitted my claim at 7pm, providing picks and product info. By 10pm they have already received and reviewed my claim and have issued a replacement bite valve to be sent to me free of charge. Hours and they are fixing it. That's a great customer service ethic and response. Updated to 4 stars because it still shouldn't have broke but hopefully the replacement part is stronger and it was a fluke. I liked this a lot at first. I've used it 4 times, during my long runs for marathon training. During the fourth run, the plastic switch on the mouth piece broke and stabbed and cut my finger. The return window is closed and now I can't use the product. I guess you get what you pay for.

Really good, no complains with this one

Love it. Used for 10ks and organized half marathons Add ice and fill with water to keep cold. Wear on back not front. Love it

After doing a bit of research I settled on the Zulu 6L despite some comments on the magnetic clip being an issue. Ironically, the magnetic clip seemed fine during an 8-hour mountain bike race but the issue I had was more with the taste of plastic and length of hose. Despite 48-hours of letting a baking soda solution sit in the pouch and hose I could not get ride of the plastic taste and despite my average height of 5’9” I had to twist my neck and look down to drink or twist the waist pack to get enough hose to drink and keep looking forward. USWE would be well advised to consider different lengths of hoses or change the connection point on the bladder to be closer to the side hose port. Otherwise, the waist pack sits well and does not move much and has enough room for flat kit and food. I’m invested now so will need to make do despite the issues.

Impeccable répond au descriptif ! Hyper confortable et pratique !
