MTB hydration pack

​

The Need

​

Mountain bikers require a compact, functional backpack that balances the need for carrying essential equipment with easy access to hydration. They need a narrow-profile design that doesn’t interfere with movement while riding, along with smart organization for tools, valuables, and a helmet.

​

The Idea

​

To create a 15-liter backpack that caters specifically to mountain bikers by incorporating a hydration bladder system, intuitive storage solutions, and a narrow design. The focus was on understanding the riders’ needs, such as ideal placement for pumps, multitools, and other essentials, and ensuring optimal accessibility during rides.

​

The Solution

​

The backpack features a slim 15-liter profile with strategically placed compartments:

• Storage Features: Accessible pockets, a helmet holder, and a padded compartment for valuables.

• Hydration System: Integrated bladder for easy access to water.

• User Convenience: On-the-go fastening straps for quick adjustments and dedicated tool-holding areas for maximum comfort.

By carefully mapping and addressing user needs, the bag enhances riding comfort and functionality, making it an ideal companion for mountain bikers.
