Osprey Katari 7 L Hydration Backpack

Unreal deal and such a great pack. Got me through the 10km Spartan Race!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Purchased for Mountain Biking and love it! comfortable for ride, carries all my gear and straw stays in place!

Light and small, good for running and has enough space to put my phone, wallet, rain jacket, two suncreens and smelling salt.

I have been using Katari 7 about a year. This is a great backpack for most of MTBers and hikers. Product description itself well explains what it is for: ideal for fast rides while packing a few biking essentials. Low-profile, stable and includes a 2.5-liter. It survives abuse and multiple crashes.

The bladder was initially a challenge to get used to, once I thought twice, I found it way better than traditional screwtop one that I had before. Far less spillage and the seal is strong. I am quite tall at 6’5”, but this pack seems to fit well on both myself and my much shorter wife.The pack stays centred on my back and I don’t even feel it as I ride. I use this primarily for mountain biking and would recommend it to anybody looking for strong value in a very well-built pack.

As described. Good waterpack with enough storage space for a couple emergency tools and small medkit. Comfortable wear.

Hitting the trails for a major backcountry adventure is what I’m all about, but sometimes all I’ve got time for is a quick hike to make the most of a weekend afternoon. On quick hikes I only need the essentials - water, a couple snacks, and maybe an additional layer. Nothing is worse than using an oversized bulky pack with minimal gear rattling around in it, and that’s why the Osprey Katari 7L Hydration Backpack is perfect for my quick hikes and outdoor activities. It’s light and breathable, and keeps a 2.5-liter water reservoir snug to my back so I can easily move and stay hydrated with the handy bite valve that magnetically attaches to the sternum strap for major convenience. With just enough room to pack some rain gear and trail mix, this minimal backpack has everything I need and nothing I don’t.

Amazing for hikes and any physical activity that will impact dehydration.
