Written by Karl Wentzel

I recently purchased the TYR Backpack at all3sports and had the opportunity to use it at two races.Likes: Overall size, plenty of space for everything, including post-race clothing and pump.  Two external mesh bottle pockets and two closable side pockets, I used them for Body Glide, sunscreen, cell phone and other small stuff. There’re four internal mesh pockets and one removable water-proof pouch for wet items. When unzipped, the pack opens like a clam shell. External mesh helmet bungee, key fob and expandable bottom for wetsuit or other use.  Padded adjustable straps are easy to use, pack is comfortable while biking to/from transition area.Dislikes: The internal zippers are difficult to see, even using a flashlight. Everything is black on black. I used some colored tape which helped, next, reflective tape.Overall, great pack and great value at $49.95
