MTB Hydro 3L Hydration Pack

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.

1. 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.
2. 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. 

Design & Action

Shredding steep singletrack or grinding out gravel miles means your hydration pack needs to disappear on your back. The MTB Hydro 3L Hydration Pack is a compact mountain bike hydration backpack built for riders who want zero distractions when the trail gets rowdy. USWE's patented No Dancing Monkey 1.2 harness uses elastic straps and a technical NDM buckle to clamp this pack against your spine, eliminating bounce completely even when you're dropping into chunky descents or sprinting out of corners. The streamlined 3L total volume keeps your essentials organized without adding bulk, while the included 2.0L Elite hydration bladder with plug-n-play coupling keeps you hydrated on fast rides and spontaneous after-work sessions.
