I have had this pack for about a year now and it has been really good. I do not have any complaints about it.
Quality: The quality of this pack is very nice, I have not had any seems come undone/loose, zippers all still work flawlessly, and no tears or rips. It actually (if I washed the mud off) looks pretty much new. The bladder is made by Hydrapack, a very good company who actually has my favorite bladder design. It is the easiest to clean and they have super customer support.
Compartments/size/fit: This is not a real big pack, which is perfect for 2-4 hour bike rides, hikes, or whatever else you may want a small hydration pack for. It fits real well on my back and once I am going on the trail, I forget it is there. The waist and chest straps keep it in place on your back. It breathes as well since there are channels in the back padding. There are pockets or compartments everywhere on this thing. It holds everything I need it to plus a bunch of extra room. (I normally carry: The full bladder, a mini pump (Blackburn Mammoth), A spare tube, multi-tool, patch kit, phone/mp3 player, and sometimes some lube for the chain.)
Overall it is a great smaller sized pack with two great companies coming together with a superb product.
