Weight: 450g / 2.0L anti-bacterial surface quick release auto-sealing reservoir / 1 zipped pocket, 2 mesh pockets with pump bungee and 1 zipped side-access main compartment / Colours: rust, blue, black / Contact: Bramwell International 015395 60214 [left-hand pic]

Source hydration packs have always maintained a superb quality throughout their construction. The Spinner 2 is no different with superb lightweight ripstop fabric on the main body, good zips with large glove friendly pull tags and a grab handle on the back, it has been well thought out and executed. The wide mesh shoulder straps make it all feel like it isn’t there, and a chest harness stops it all from moving while riding.

Our only criticism is the side entry to the reservoir compartment — a bit cramped and right where the pack is bound to be muddiest. However, that is more than made up for by the quick release, auto sealing button on the reservoir. Handy mesh pump pockets and an emergency jacket stashing bungee top off what is a great pack.
