I just got a new back pack type H2O hydration system. My old one is a camel bac, this one is made by Gregory. Question: What is the best way to clean the water bag before the first use? Hot soapy water and __________________? Any recommendations? I need to stay well hydrated on the SHJag29er. Maybe someone can provide a link. Thanks in advance for your suggestions. --chirokid--

You can clean them with bleach and water to kill anything that may grow in the bladder. CamelBak and some of the other companies sell special brushes to clean the tube and inside the bladder. When putting the hydration pack away I stuff a cardboard tube from a paper towel roll in the bladder to allow it to air out and dry.
If you want to get rid of any funny tastes in the bladder I use denture cleanser tablets. Rinse it out a couple times afterwards to get rid of the denture tablet taste. Ah, fresh and clean.

Keith, does that bad boy hold gallons of water? I've seen you sweat, and on a 29er it must really be bad.😉

Do you know that sensation you feel leaning back in a chair just before you fall over? I feel that way pretty much all the time. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bugman's Profile: unicyclist.com3812Open ↗ View this thread: unicyclist.com30314Open ↗
