Leaky Hydrapack Arrrgghhh

[ape]

Anyone own a hydrapack and have similar issues, I'm finding that mine is constantly dripping out of the tube all of my leg its driving me crazy. Its really not ideal on a 12 and half mile ride to work a.) having soaking wet jeans leg and b.) losing about 1 litre's worth of water that I could be drinking.

Its started doing it over the last couple of days and seems to be coming from the hard plastic bit of tubing that fits into the hose, I've tried taking the plastic bit out and drying it today to see if it improves anything but with no joy, and even when the bag water sack is nearly empty it still manages to continue dripping water over me.

Starting to think I should of brought a camel back

I had a Hydrapack and thought it was great until the bladder split for no reason. Was on my way out to ride so ruined that day. The spares were going to cost nearly as much as I paid for it so got a Camelback Mule instead. Well pleased with the CB, it's far better then the HP ever was.

Got a spare HP hose and mouth piece you can have for free if it's any use?

Lol I might take you up on that just seeing if I can fix it put some electrical tape round the plastic and tubing last night and didnt help so I'm thinking it could be the valve :-(
