Hydration pack specialist Camelbak has just released details of its 2016 collection. The most interesting addition to the line is a cleverly designed hip pack. Also new for 2016 is a low-riding hydration pack that replaces several packs in the company’s current line.
It’s no secret that many mountain bikers have been gravitating toward hip packs. Hips packs are great for shorter, sub-two-hour rides, they allow you to carry the bare essentials, keep the weight low, and can be much more comfortable to ride with in hot weather.

The Palos 4 LR uses a 1.5l bladder (roughly equivalent to two large water bottles) and has enough cargo capacity for a multi-tool, tube, a small pump or C02 inflator, phone, keys and an energy bar. The hydration tube wraps around the front of the pack and is held in place with Camelbak’s magnetic Tube Trap. The tube can be routed from either the side to suit user preferences.
We’ve got one ride on a pre-production sample and this looks to be a very promising product.
