Camelbak Chaos Hydration Pack

We know that the best gear is the stuff that works without you having to think much about it. That's why we're stoked about Camelbak's low-profile Chaos Hydration pack with 70-oz. OMEGA™ Reservoir. It's the kind of pack you want for the steepest single-track riding on the mountain. Camelbak created a strap management system that keeps loose webbing from flapping in the breeze, but they didn't sacrifice gear strap functionality for your full-face helmet or shin and elbow guards. A new Independent Suspension™ with waist harness helps stabilize the pack at full capacity so you never have to worry about it leaning into a turn before the rest of you. Camelbak recently refined their entire OMEGA™ Reservoirs with a HydroTanium™ polyurethane film that further enhances the integrity of one of the most burst-resistant hydration reservoirs in the industry. We've found that hikers, bikers, skiers and snowboarders who have ever burst a cheap reservoir often opt for the durable design of the Camelbak OMEGA™ pouch on their next adventure--and it works. Up top you'll find a wide, easy-filling twist cap opening that easily accommodates ice cubes and cleaning brushes. Camelbak used a special HydroGuard™ antimicrobial silver ion compound to minimize bacterial and fungal growth along the tube and inside the reservoir--minimizing any potential for funky petri dish flavors. All Camelbak ounce OMEGA™ water reservoirs feature a self-sealing silicon Big Bite™ Valve that gives you water when you need it without any extra drips on your pack or fleece jacket. If you like to bike fast while feeling unencumbered, this Camelbak Chaos is exactly what you need to ride in harmony.

Great bag. Tons of space, comfortable. Great value.
I upgraded from a Camelbak Rogue to this model and have to say the actual carrying capacity is fantastic. A great price considering the amount of space and comfort you get with this item.

Chaos camelback
The Chaos is a great pack. Fits well. I bought it along with a MULE for my wife. The Chaos is good but the MULE is a better buy for most riders. If I did it over, I'd have bought myself a MULE as well.
