camelbak bladder

I recently fell off my bike at some speed and landed on my Camelbak MULE
which was nearly full of water. Didn't burst but did force and no leakage.

Cheers

bladder on its first outing..do they leak/burst has anyone had a problem
with this? if they are trust worthy i neednt take the extra weight of more
drink in future.

A bit of a mistake in that last answer, I should have added that the impact
did force a bit of water out of the bite valve.

I've got a Camelbak HAWG and it's seems fairly indestrutable to me!.
Mines been caving, walking, mountain biking and trail riding and has not
leaked a drop. The only problems I've had have been the bladder getting hot
and warming up the water and the fact that I cannot know find the bladder to
put in the rucksack!!!!.

You were lucky - last time I fell off my bike I broke my collarbone and
forced some blood from my knuckles as I somersaulted along the pavement.
