Camelbak VeloBak: A Road Bike Jersey with Built-in Hydration

New to Camelbak’s wearable hydration collection is the Camelbak VeloBak, the first road bike jersey designed with a cyclist’s need for a convenient hydration system in mind. The Camelbak VeloBak made its debut at this year’s InterBike, where it received positive feedback from roadies and mountain bikers. The jersey is home to a 72 .oz reservoir, located on the backside. It also hosts three pockets and a dual zip front. The VeloBak is best suited for a bike ride lasting two or more hours. Unfortunately, the VeloBak will only come in white (at least for starters anyway), which may not be ideal for ripping up a muddy mountain bike trail. It will be available on the 15th for both men and women and will retail for $130.

Thanks, Camelbak, for another gimmicky solution to a problem none of us cared about. (Can’t wait ’til it comes out in ultra-high-modulus carbon fiber!)
But I do like this aspect of it: I now have an excuse for looking like the fatass that I am.
“No, I’m wearing my VeloBak, man.”
