The 10 Best MTB Hip Packs for Riding Light
Fanny pack, hip pack, waist bag, moon bag, belly bag, bum bag. Whatever term you use, this is an item that probably stirs up images of the 1980s, neon, and celebrities trying to convince us that they are cool. Which is probably why so many people shy away from them, afraid to be lumped into the same category as the unhip tourist. However, fanny packs have evolved, moving from questionable fashion accessory to a proven way for carrying essentials on the trail. Hip packs these days are a practical solution for mountain biking and we are here to help you figure out what are the best MTB hip packs for you.
TESTIMONIALS
I was truly blessed to have you as my editor! You never gave up on me, I had fell through the cracks in the Book Creators Program. You came to my rescue, and now my book will be published. Writing “My Story” as you told it was, has been cathartic. I know my book is raw and going trigger people’s emotions. I cannot believe the people I have met through my journey. I’m excited for you to read my book. And again, thank you from the bottom of my heart. Shirley
