I sweat a lot so...

By Sara Gress Ranked #264 - Water Reservoirs December 28, 2009

I have the 3L version. I would never go with a smaller reservoir; there's no reason why you can't just fill the 3L up halfway if you don't need the full capacity. I have been using the same bladder for everything for about 6 years now and it still looks and functions like it did when I bought it. I have been taking care of it, making sure to wash it out right after I use it, as well as letting it air dry before I pack it away. I had a friend who did not do this and the bladder grew mold after being stuffed away full of water for several months. Moral of the story: don't be lazy and you will have a great hydration reservoir for a very long time.

Water tastes like water when coming out of this reservoir. However, beer tastes like carbonated plastic when coming out of this reservoir. And the bladder retains traces of that taste for about 5 uses later. Moral of the story: don't be an idiot.
