Dakine drafter pack
I started riding with bottles - as my rides got longer (and I wanted to carry more stuff more comfortably) I got a Camelbak Lobo (2L - small storage space, I think the new ones are 3L).
Recently, I upgraded to a Dakine Drafter (3L, lots of storage space).
It took me a ride or two to adjust to the shift in my center of gravity due to the Camelbak, but I've had no issues since. I don't even notice its there anymore - I think I would feel odd riding without it. It does cause egregious back sweats, but I only notice that when I stop moving.
