Fit, Specs & Care

How To Set Up The Harness?

All of our NDM 1 products are unisex and are designed and tested for both men and women. To set up the harness follow the steps below.

Put the backpack on. Adjust the horizontal chest straps to a comfortable length (The two "d-rings" allow you to change between a larger and smaller size). Use the outer ring for the large size and loop through both for the smaller size.
Adjust the vertical shoulder straps (If needed) to adjust the height of the buckle, the center buckle should align around the height of your solar plexus. Do note that a few models like Race 2.0 and Outlander PRO does not have this setting due to their low weight.

Hydration Systems

ELITE

Reverse by placing your hand in the bladder, grab the bottom, and pull it back through the top opening, just like turning a sock inside-out. The molded opening can also be flipped after the bladder body has been reversed. Then, throw it in the dishwasher or rinse with mild soap and water. Make sure to let the bladder dry out completely while reversed.

Full Description

Designed for off-road

AIRBORNE 3L Race Edition comes with a sweet limited edition color design, and we all know a cool color makes you go faster!

The Airborne is the perfect lightweight hydration sports backpack while going on your wild MTB rides. The ventilated back panel with foam ridges and the NDM tech and high-vent shoulder straps gives you the absolute best and snuggest fit, without messing with your balance or style.

Stay Hydrated in Action

If you get thirsty you just grab the drink tube from the super strong magnet clip that’s attached to the harness and take a few refreshing zips from the 2.0 liter Elite hydration bladder Made by HydraPak® that’s buckled up inside the main compartment on your back. We like it solid and simple, so we picked a premium bladder for you with a Slide-Seal top and Plug-N-Play™ coupling for easier handling.

Pack Your Gear

The total pack volume of the biking backpack is 3 liters but can easily be transformed into 2 liters by detaching the external multi-pocket where you carry your spare tube, multi-tool and/or rain jacket. It’s simply your race mode that will decide if you go light or superlight for the day. You can even secure a full-face helmet on this baby! For visibility there's an easy and secure attachment for a bike LED-light, and reflective points both front and back.

What's the Catch?

The only backside of the coin that we can think of on this super smooth MTB backpack, would be -You’ll most likely get addicted to your Airborne 3 because of its perfect fit. It’s like wearing nothing at all. So what’s less amazing with that? Well, wearing your pack when you ride is cool, but we believe your partner will be less excited if you wear it in bed. Good luck!
