![]() ![]() This 3L pack is big enough for a few sundries but small enough so you can’t lose anything inside. What we liked: style, made from lightweight remnant fabric, can be used a cross body bagįun, whimsical, and stylish in that 80’s throwback kind of way, the Cotopaxi Bataan Del Día Fanny Pack is great for around town or that next beach party. It has 5/5 stars and 38 reviews at Google Reviews and Backcountry’s second highest-rated fanny pack from customers. ![]() We found the Podium Flow handy for hiking, trail runs, and around town. The Podium Flow is popular in the MTB community (it’s actually marketed towards mountain bikers) and recommended by SingleTracks and Pink Bike. And when it comes to function, I feel like the designers made the generic fanny pack design much more efficient. Personally, I love the look of this stylish fanny pack. A secure fit is crucial for trail running, which is why we made it our running fanny pack pick. The snugness of the pocket was something I really liked about the Camelbak Podium Flow Belt-and so do customers on Camelbak’s website, who gave the Podium Flow 4.6 out of 5 stars. The bottle on the Podium Flow pocket is snug and situated at an angle for easy access when wearing the Podium Flow on your back as a lumbar pack. It also works extremely well as a running fanny pack. ![]() The Camelbak Podium Flow Belt is a hiking fanny pack with an unobtrusive built-in bottle pocket, giving you all the carrying capacity and water needed for short to moderate day hikes, mountain bike rides, peak bags from basecamp, and strolls around town. What we didn't like: small pack, shorter waist strap What we liked: snug pocket, efficient design, freestanding water bottle The Tour is recommended by Gear Junkie, Wired, and UpgradedPoints with accolades for its use in both the backcountry and as a travel fanny pack. You can fit a full size hiking water bottle in each water bottle pocket. The urge to fill The Tour is a minor issue that you just have to be aware of as you mindfully pack for your next adventure. If you are the type of person who has to fight the urge to fill every pocket and pouch up with stuff, consider how extra items will change the weight of the pack during a longer excursion. Since one of the most attractive aspects of this pack is all of the pocket space, one issue that could come up with the Tour is the urge to fill it. We even know a hiker with an injured shoulder who uses this pack for overnight backpacking trips. Many customer reviewers said they appreciated the many needs this pack could meet. What’s attractive about the Mountainsmith Tour Lumbar pack is its versatility: you can use it for biking, longer hikes, or in lieu of a briefcase in casual business environments, or even as a diaper bag (it’s the same size as many bags marketed as “diaper bags” and Mountainsmith’s website touts that the Tour makes a good diaper bag). For those hikers who prefer a hands-free hiking experience, hate to have a heavy pack creating a sweaty back, or prefer a lumbar pack that sits behind instead of in front, the Mountainsmith Tour is the best lumbar pack and best high volume waist pack out there. I found the Mountainsmith Tour Lumbar Pack to be a fantastic alternative to a regular backpack-and especially great as a multi-use product. What we didn't like: extra space can lead to a heavy pack What we liked: multi-use, versatile, functional pockets But if you like to always have a basic outdoor bag packed and ready for an impromptu hike or dog walk, this is a great option. This isn't the hiking waist pack we'd recommend if you want to carry layers or water bottles–check out our backpacking or lumbar pack winners for that. It's become or go-to bag for dog walking and can fit doggie bags, a ball, treats along with human gear like a phone, wallet, and keys. In the 1L volume, we were able to fit a phone, sunscreen and lip balm, sunglasses, a headlamp, a snack, electrolytes, gloves, a wallet, and keys (it has a handy key ring so you won't accidentally lose your keys when pulling something out mid-hike). ![]() Whether walking the dog or carrying basic hiking gear, this Black Hole sits comfortable on your waist and looks great in many fun colors. What makes it great for hiking is that it's lightweight and stores in its own pocket when not in use, yet is durable and has great pockets to organize hiking essentials. If you’re looking for a hands-free way to carry the bare necessities (excluding hydration), the Patagonia Ultralight Black Hole Hip Pack is the best fanny pack for you-and the best fanny pack for most hikers. What we didn't like: not bottle compatible, waist strap could be longer What we liked: versatile, bluesign certified, recycled material Patagonia Ultralight Black Hole Mini Hip Pack ![]()

Kestrel EMS carbon handlebar – another item that is no longer produced. Admittedly, Shimano does a much better design job with their climbing and sprint shifters, but considering this is eTap V1, we remain optimistic SRAM will improve their system in the next release. JOM is a huge proponent of these gear systems, having adopted Di2 since the day it was introduced over six years ago… and Mavic Mektronic and Mavic Zap… circa 1994 for Zap. SRAM’s Blip shifters feature prominently on this bike a huge advantage with electronic shifting is the ability to run additional shifters.
