CamelBakM.U.L.E. 12 Mountain Biking Hydration Backpack - Easy Refilling Hydration Backpack - Magnetic Tube Trap 100oz

The CamelBak M.U.L.E. 12 is not just a mountain biker’s companion; it turns out to be a fantastic ally for us festival-goers too. With its 12-liter capacity, it’s compact enough to navigate through crowded spaces yet spacious enough to hold all the essentials alongside a generous 3-liter water reservoir.Filling up the hydration bladder is a breeze thanks to its wide mouth opening, and cleaning post-festival is equally straightforward. The bite valve is a real winner, providing easy access to hydration, which is crucial amidst the festival frenzy. It effortlessly delivers a refreshing flow of water, keeping the party-going spirit high and dehydration at bay.Comfort is where the M.U.L.E. 12 truly shines. The well-padded shoulder straps coupled with a secure chest strap make it a comfortable wear, even through long festival hours. The ventilation on the back panel is a godsend, keeping the sweaty back issue in check as you dance away to the beats.The additional storage compartments come in handy for stashing away festival essentials. There’s ample room for snacks, a light jacket for the chilly evening hours, and even some festival gear. The pockets are well-placed and provide easy access, saving time and hassle in those moments when you just need that one item.The robust build quality means it can endure the wildness of festival adventures, protecting your belongings from both bumps and the elements. It’s a pack built to last, season after season.Though priced on the higher side, the convenience, durability, and comfort it offers make it a worthwhile investment for any festival aficionado.In summation, the CamelBak M.U.L.E. 12 has proven to be a reliable, comfortable, and highly functional hydration pack for our music festival escapades. It’s a purchase that has enhanced our festival experience, ensuring we stay hydrated, comfortable, and well-prepared as we revel in the music and festivities. Highly recommended for anyone looking to up their festival game!

My family went on a two week road trip this past June hiking national and state parks through southern Utah and Arizona. We would be out hiking 4+ miles every single day and these packs were great! Holds everything you need and plenty of water being out in the desert. If I had to point out one con, it would be that I wish there was slightly more padding on the straps, but overall not a big deal. Still very comfortable to wear out all day. My 14 year old daughter has the same one in gray and also loved it. Great purchase!

This has several pockets for storing various items while on the trail, and that is wonderful.The zippers feel very quality, and overall I really like this.However, it’s very expensive for what it is, and it doesn’t come with a cover for the mouth guard, I had to purchase that separately which makes this even more expensive.

Does a pretty good job meets the Camelback standard that I'm used to is definitely a light when I don't put too many books or other things in it one thing I have against it is the screw in lid if it's not in just right it will leak and any pressure on it when you feel it full will mean loss of water or any liquid that is held.

I just did my first mountain bike ride with the new MULE. I had 1.5 liters of water, my phone and car keys in the phone pocket, all of my tools, a spare tube, a pump, a rain jacket and a huge folding saw. The pack was very comfortable and the ventilation was really good on a hot day. The pack stays put on my back while riding and jumping off of things too! I highly recommend this pack.

I ended up selecting this Mule pack as replacement to my prior pack which was also a Mule which was very happy with but wore out mountain biking. After first use, I'm very happy with my decision Key points/observations:Value for money compared to other packs: excellentImprovements over the last model:More storage, Larger outer compartment has 3 net compartments which are really nice!Magnetic sternum strap is a home run. On MTB rides I would stop to get something out of the pack, then start riding after forgetting to clip the sternum strap, and physically could not do with one hand. Now can easily do with 1 hand.New adjustable sternum strap height is niceNew magnetic hose retainer is nice, but for cycling won't work unless sternum strap is adjusted to highest point otherwise hose hits shoulder/arm and will not stay.Bite valve with shutoff is nice. They all leak after awhile so the shutoff is nice.Misses compared to last model:The larger outer pocket comes at the cost that it is no longer the outermost pocket. To fully unzip the pocket, you must unclip the two buckles used to secure the outer stuff sleeve. Not a showstopper as you can get to most stuff by partially unzipping and reaching in from the sideI use the lanyard for keys 100% of the time. They put the key lanyard in the bottom zippered mesh pocket of the outer pocket. The only way to get to this is to fully unzip the outer pocket after unclipping the stuff sleeve. (game show buzzer). I worked around this by attaching a new lanyard within the pocket that is accessible from the top or side.This model has a cord loop for securing the bladder. Much less convenient than the previous sleeve for the plastic piece below the cap on the bladder. (game show buzzer)The lame video by the guy who has never used a hydration pack and didn't even bother to unbuckle the straps from how it was shipped is garbage. C'mon Camelback, give me some free stuff to review and I'll actually use it, and give worthwhile reviews!!!I looked around at other brands and am very happy with this choice!

Fits well, durable, works great for my needs

Backpack came a week early which was a plus. The negative was that it had this cut on the side that doesn’t look like it should be there. Sent back for a refund.

Produto de excelente qualidade. Entrega super rápida.

Gran capacidad de agua y almacenaje, somodo y ligero!

Très beau sac, très bien fait et bien conçu. Format parfait pour le vélo.

This is well worth the money. On top of it having a msssive 3litre water pouch it has loads of other pockets. I've used it with and without the water pouch and for cycle commuting its great, stays put on your back due to the chest and waist clips.
