When you’re as big a brand as Mavic, it would be all too easy to simply stamp your name on any old bag, but the French wheelsmiths have applied their typical attention to detail to this 8.5l enduro-style pack.
Even with a full
bladder (included) inserted there are still two cavernous full-length pockets, the
outer of which is sectioned for tools. There’s a helmet net tucked away,
a loop for a rear light and a tidy exterior pocket ideal for instant-access
items like goggles. The wide shoulder and waist straps make this one of the
most comfy packs on test. We also like the pared-back looks and secure fit. While
there’s no plastic clip for the drinking hose, it’s cleverly looped round so
that you can slurp at shoulder height with ease.
BLADDER? Yes
SPINE PROTECTION? No
