The choice pack for mountain bike legend Tinker Juarez, the AS Race features Hydrapak’s “Air Scoop” ventilation - a combination of four foam pads on the back and an internal plastic frame sheet - that keeps the pack off your back and allows air to circulate. Both a zippered mesh storage pocket and the 50-ounce bladder (with a roll-top and Velcro closure) are accessed through a side zipper. A top access pouch and Lycra panel on the back add versatile storage options. Adjustable sternum strap, no waist belt. 12 ounces.
