FAQs

What is the total capacity of the pack?

The CamelBak Lobo has a total capacity of 9 liters, including the 2-liter hydration reservoir.

Can I use a larger or smaller hydration reservoir?

While optimized for the included 2L Crux® reservoir, the pack is designed to accommodate most standard-sized hydration reservoirs. Smaller ones may result in more empty space within the dedicated sleeve.

How often should I clean the Crux® reservoir?

It is recommended to clean the reservoir after every use with mild soap and water. For deeper cleaning, use a reservoir cleaning kit.

Is the waist strap essential for stability?

The waist strap is removable and provides additional stability, especially on rough terrain or when carrying heavier loads. For lighter loads or smoother terrain, it can be removed for increased comfort.

What materials is the pack made from?

The pack is constructed from a durable blend of nylon and polyester, designed for both resilience and breathability.

Can this pack be used for activities other than biking or hiking?

Yes, its versatility and comfortable design make it suitable for various active pursuits like trail running, climbing, or even as a day pack for travel.

Troubleshooting

Water flow is weak or non-existent.

Ensure the bite valve is open. Check that the reservoir is not completely empty and that the tube is not kinked. Verify the Quicklink™ connection is secure.

Pack feels uncomfortable or slips.

Adjust the shoulder straps and sternum strap for a snug fit. Ensure the waist strap (if used) is properly positioned and tightened.

Back panel is not ventilating effectively.

Ensure clothing worn under the pack is not overly bulky. The Air Support™ panel works best with some air gap, which might be reduced by very tight-fitting layers.

Magnetic Tube Trap™ is not holding the tube securely.

Ensure the magnet on the tube and the corresponding clip on the harness are clean and free of debris. Reposition the tube within the trap.
