CamelBak M.U.L.E. 12 Mountain Bike Hydration Pack

This backpack and seller were amazing to work with! We got a great deal on a great product! We use this for dirt biking and it is light weight, holds lots of water and even has room for extra storage.

Great back packLove the size

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!

This is my second camelbak. My other one is so old that I got from a friend many years ago, but still works fine, just has that rubber taste.This new one is much more modern and works better. I love taking it when I go walking or biking. It holds plenty of water to last many hours. I even add a cup or two of ice to it which keeps the water cold and my back chilled. It has more pockets and pouches than it needs, but useful if you need them. The bladder is easily removed for filling and draining. So far I haven’t had any leaks or issues with it, nor does it have that rubber taste to it like my old one. Worth every penny.

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!

This is actually the second time I’ve purchased this backpack; the first one lasted for years, and is still useful, even with frequent use on trail runs and mountain hikes. It’s compact, which makes it ideal for my daughter, and incredibly comfortable to wear. The design includes all the necessary compartments without feeling bulky. I especially love the color because it hides dirt well and still looks great after multiple outings. The material is tough and holds up impressively under stress. The strap support is excellent, allowing for both walking and running with minimal discomfort. It’s a reliable, well-designed pack that truly delivers. Very easy to use.

Had a Chinese copy before, but what a difference this on is... You can tell that a lot of though went into it. Highly recommend despite the price

Works well, like the shut off valve, doesn't leak at all, everything you could possibly want. Lots of space in the backpack compartments doesn't feel bulky at all, once you're riding you feel like it's not even there. Bladder is very well made and holds a lot of fluid without feeling like it's gonna burst. 5/5

Toller Rucksack mit wirklich gutem Camelback.Leicht zu reinigen und auch Platz für ein paar weitere Sachen.

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.

Ich bin sehr zufrieden! Hochwertig, passt sich durch die geschwungene Rückseite angenehm dem Rücken an und hat genügend Taschen. Genau die richtige Größe, nichts zu viel und nichts zu wenig. Trotz ihrer Dünnheit sind die Schultergurte auch bei einer 4-Stunden-Tour mit vollem 3l Reservoir bequem. Ich halte das Mundstück auf der Seite, auf der der Schlauch herauskommt, und der Magnet funktioniert (auch) für diesen Zweck perfekt. Mein vorheriger Camelbak hat bei mir 15 Jahre ohne Probleme durchgehalten und das erwarte ich auch von diesem.

Avevo un vecchio Camelback che mi ha servito per anni (ce l’ho ancora) ma volevo qualcosa di più grande e funzionale e devo dire che non mi delude: ottima fattura e nuove chicche (come il sistema di apertura del tubo per bere ed i magneti per un aggancio più rapido).Soddisfattissimo

Cómoda y práctica con suficiente espacio
