Osprey's women's specific verve 9 is the ideal cycling companion. Made to carry weight in an upright position, a foam frame sheet spreads the load across a ventilated mesh back panel for all-day comfort. The stretch shoulder harness provides a contoured fit and the webbing hip belt is removable to shave ounces. If you end up carrying extra weight, top compression straps lend extra load stability. Access your gear in the main compartment via the zippered front panel. You can slip small items into the dual side mesh or harness pockets or stash a layer in the front fabric Shove-It pocket for quick access. There's even a scratch-free slash pocket for your shades. Bike-friendly features include a hydraulics lt 2.5 liter reservoir with magnetic bite valve retention, internal bike pump storage loops, and osprey's innovative lid lock helmet attachment system.
