REI is having 20% off one item, and I am thinking about getting an Osprey Talon 22 daypack.
This will be for mountain biking and running to the gym with my workout stuff in the back.
It will be $80 after discount, just wondering if anyone owns and has opinions on this product.
Mainly I am concerned about durability since it is designed to be very light weight, which I like.

Got it and it rocks. It's lighter than most hydration packs, breathable and can carry a bunch of stuff, and it is very adjustable. I ran and mountain biked in it and it's like a part of you.
A bit pricey since hydration reservoir is not included, but I definitely recommend it.
