Crux Water Reservoir

You can rest when the vacation's over. So, rather than sleeping in, get up and grab your trekking poles, snacks, and the Camelbak Crux Water Reservoir, so you can get to the trailhead before the parking lot fills up. An ergonomic handle provides easy, one-handed fill when you're still trying to clear the sleep from your eyes. A baffled design keeps the reservoir's profile low, so you don't have to pull everything out of your pack to slip the reservoir inside. And when finally do hit the trail, the Crux's innovative construction keeps water flowing to ensure you stay hydrated from the initial hike in to that last mile when you're blissfully exhausted from a satisfying day on the trail.

Chemical taste

Familiarity:
I've put it through the wringer

I cannot. I tried for years, risked dehydration because the plastic chemical taste is overwhelming. It just won’t go away no matter what i do. Its a pity because otherwise i had zero problems with this reservoir. People say the white and clear ones don’t have the same problem

Love the tube length. Allows me to drink from the bag while being stored behind me in my kayak.

Not happy with the lid.

Not happy with the lid. During my 50 mile race after only using this bladder less than 5 times the lid completely detached from the ring that holds the lid to the bladder. Minor inconvenience during a tough race.

Started leaking

I used this to hike with a handful of times within a year and the bottom where the tube snaps into started to leak. No apparent reason. Nothing was broken and it would still snap in snuggly, so it was a mystery. I had to toss it.

These do wear out with

These do wear out with heavy usage and have to be replaced once they start the mysterious slow leak, in which water escapes into the backpack with no discernible source. I'm glad to see the straw redesign because the plastic bent on the last one, which I didn't like. However, they're great for hiking hydration in a light pack that keeps my hands free. Just purchased for the third time!

Camelback Crux 2 liters reservoir

Fits my wife’s daypack perfectly. We change our pack reservoir every other year and always go with CamelBak.
