Osprey Packs

Raven 10L Hydration Backpack - Women's

The Osprey Raven may not get us back into the tempest and the Night's Plutonian shore, but this 10L backpack has got our back when we're mounting up for a cross country loop or crushing downhill runs at the resort. We like the pack's women-specific fit and all of its bike-centric features, including a tool roll that organizes our mini-pumps, levers, and more in a dedicated lower compartment, the LidLock that attaches our helmet outside the pack to preserve inside space, and the new "winged" harness that wraps our upper shoulders for added stability and a close-to-body fit for better balance and less sloshing. The hydration system is another plus with the included 2.5-liter that fits into a dedicated hydration compartment and a magnetic bite valve that keeps the hose from whipping around when we fly down steep straightaways or criss-cross down a series of switchbacks. Although it's fairly compact, the Raven's 10-liter capacity can accommodate a light layer, a substantial snack, and all the tools we need to get our bike back to the trailhead after a mid-ride breakdown. That adds up to a top-notch hydration pack.
