Have any pictures? I’m very interested in the 25 and 30!
So, when will these be hitting the shelves? I have not seen any release dates mentioned. Thanks.
Hi Matt, Look for Manta and Raptor packs in stores by the end of February
I was wondering if there are any Cleaning tablets i should avoid due to to the material of the Osprey bladder? or are all bladder cleaning tablets safe to use?
Hi Chad,
Any cleaning tablet will work with our reservoirs. We actually recommend very diluted dish soap, just as you would use to wash a glass or coffee cup after you drank out of it. Rinse thoroughly and dry. For Spring 2011 we will be offering a cleaning kit that includes brushes for the reservoir and the hose as well as a hangar for drying. If you can’t wait until then there are a few similar set ups on the market.
Cheers,
