Wow! The B-Line 8.0 women’s specific model has too many bells and whistles to list. The attention to detail that a woman rider needs is impressive. The 3.0L reservoir disconnects from the hose for easy filling and cleaning, and the RidgeAir back panel makes the pack comfortable and provides great air flow. The pack is small and lightweight, but has more storage than meets the eye, with lots of pockets, and an easy access zippered outer pocket for your phone. It took me a couple of rides to get used to the light pressure needed on the bite valve, but I’ve since figured that one out.

BOTTOM LINE

The B-Line has been my go-to pack this summer for everything from our backyard trails to Telluride singletrack. Look no further for your next hydration pack.
