Phaps I need to make the reviews more visible

Sorry didn't see that

Hi,

I have a Raptor 10 pack, it's a good pack with some really good storage pockets.
Plus a tool roll storage compartment.

3 Ltr reservoir is a bit too big for rides under 2-3 hours, I only end up filling to 1.5 ltrs or so.

Would recommend......

I just bought one of these, half the price and my last one lasted 3/4 years http://www.decathlon.co.uk/hydration-ba ... 00158.html

Thanks for the replies guys

Just seen that the raptor 14 is £6 cheaper than the raptor 10 at wiggle.co.uk how's that work????
Might get this instead then

can be found cheaper or there is a smaller similar one called a drafter

Hi CrazyJoe,

You've probably bought the bag already but I've given my opinion below. Let me know how you feel about it so far.

I have the raptor 14. it is a really good bag and I really like the functionality. Lots of pockets and storage areas and if you don't want to use the bladder, you actually get a nice larger flat storage area.
I tend to carry small contingent of tools, half the water bladder full and some spares and a jacket.

I find it is a tad small for me so in winter, if you want to carry spare clothing, it will be a really tight fit (unless your small).
I am mixed at the moment because I wish they had a raptor 20 just to hold a few more spare clothes.

if you can get the 14 cheaper, I would advise you do so. they are not that cheap and if you find it too small after purchase, you don't want to feel depressed...
