Dakine Session Backpack 2011
The Dakine Session Bike Back Pack has slightly more volume than the minimalist Dakine Shuttle. It's built for fast riders; fast up and fast down. If you don't want to be encumbered by your pack, but still need to carry some armor for your ripping descents, come take a look at the Dakine Session pack.
The first thing you notice is it's trim shape; just a couple zippers and some straps to secure knee guards or a helmet. There's an externally accessible, open pouch with expandable mesh sides. Stuff a rain shell or food in there for easy retrieval. The larger open pouch can hold small elbow guards, arm/knee warmers when the sun comes out, or interesting rocks you might find on the trail.
un-Zip and open the large main compartment where there's a dedicated pump sleeve and a padded MP3 player pocket with a headphone port for your easy listening pleasure. The smaller, zipped compartment has a zipped mesh pocket and an elastic mesh pocket to control all your chaos. Top it off with an external, zippered, fleece-lined sunglass pocket and what more do you need? Dakine's Flowlock reservoir to hold your fluid, of course!
The Dakine Session comes with a 70 oz. (2 liter) Flowlock Reservoir; enough water for a two-hour-plus ride, and enough innovative features to make you swear off all other reservoirs. There's a wide, easy-to-grip cap for easy access. The stiff collar has an ergonomic handle for spill- free filling, and a clip that integrates with Dakine packs to keep the reservoir upright during loading. What we like the best is the detachable hose, making it a simple operation to bring the reservoir to the sink and fill it up, hassle-free. The separate, zippered reservoir compartment makes it easy to fill up for a ride.
Don't forget about the leak- proof, ergonomically adjustable bite valve that accommodates any angle of mouth grip
