Question 1: Would you buy this product?
I would probably opt for a smaller pack that I would be inclined to use for running as well as my cycling endeavors.
Question 2: Describe how you use the Cycopak
I used my pack on a day hike of about 4 miles of steep terrain; I enjoyed having water at my disposal like the Cycopak offered. I also used the pack on my road bike for a 15 mile ride, I enjoyed having 2 liters of water instead of my puny bottles, I drink a ton of water!!
