'Small, light & Well Specified'

Strengths:
Very streamlined, lightweight & sexy. It even has a chest strap, to stop it from sliding off your shoulders. As it's a snowboarding pack, the drink tube is insulated with a neoprene wrapper, and has a large rubber end-cap to stop your drink from freezing in the bite-valve. The end-cap comes off, so it's perfect for all weather. The drink tube can be tucked away in a zippable stowage slit that runs down the right hand shoulder strap, further insulating the tube in cold weather. The 1 litre storage capacity is JUST enough for a spare tube & mini-tool kit.

Weaknesses:
When the pack's empty, it does ride up a bit, but that's nit-picking. If you want a bigger pack - get one.

The blurb incites you to wear it under your jacket. Are they insane? You'll be followed all over by girls called esmerelda... I despair.

Overall:
Fantastic value for money when you consider the little details that are covered. The spare shoulder strapping can even be rolled up & secured with a little velcro tab at the end of each extender.

When you consider I can use it on my bike AND on my snowboard, it makes for a fantastic value, sleek product, which is also cute as a button.

A must own if you're looking for a small pack just for the essentials.
