FAQs

Can I fit a larger reservoir in this pack?

The pack is optimized for the included 1.5-litre reservoir; larger reservoirs may not fit correctly within the dedicated sleeve.

Is the pack waterproof?

The materials are water-resistant, but the pack is not fully waterproof. Use a dry bag for sensitive electronics during heavy rain.

How do I clean the reservoir tube?

Use a flexible tube brush to scrub the inside of the tube, then rinse with warm water and a mild detergent.

Is the tool roll removable?

Yes, the tool roll is designed to be removed for easier access to your repair items while working on your bike.

Can I wear this under a jersey?

While technically possible, this pack is designed to be worn over your cycling jersey for the best accessibility and fit.

Troubleshooting

Hose is leaking at the bite valve

Check that the bite valve is pushed fully onto the hose and that the valve toggle is in the open position.

Pack feels unstable while riding

Re-adjust the sternum straps to tighten the vest fit against your torso, ensuring the weight is distributed evenly.
