Will this reservoir fit well in a Osprey Talon 22 Small/Medium back pack? How many liters would be best for this pack?

Hi Lynn,judging from the picture of the backpack, the osprey reservoir would easily fit. I have a smaller/narrow camel pack and it still fits in my but barely. I think you should be okay with the 2 Liter. You could probably do 3 Liters.

I really like the Osprey Reservoir and it has heald up well in multiple backpacking situations for me. I have the 2.5 L for my 45L Osprey pack and that is the most that I think I could fit in that pack. I would say try either the 2 L for your 22 L pack if you want the biggest that might fit or the 1.5 L likely would for sure fit. If to big, you should be able to return or just not fill it completely full likely would work too.

I think the pack will be a little on the large size for running depending on how much clothes you want to bring. I suggest maybe a 10-20L pack for that. Don't get me wrong though, the talon has great compression so under packing it works great as well.

I think you'll be fine with this pack. It wasn't very big. As for space available, I used it to hike Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs. I filled the bladder and still had room for a spare bottle, extra gloves, and snacks for the day.

I have taken my Osprey Talon 22 Litre with me to both Peru and Belize on excursions and it was the perfect size. It had plenty of extra room if i needed it and fit everything that i needed. I also used this backpack my last year of university and it fit all of my books very comfortably. So if you are just using it for school or 1-2 day backpacking trips 22 Litres would be the perfect size.

It might be a little small. I would recommend the 60 ounce camelback with no frills as it ends up being a "mid-size" model

I have used a 3.0L osprey without issue. It fit nicely on its side inside the bags inner hydration pouch. The bag is huge and could probably held more without issue.

No, it's too skinny for a camelback style pack. It would be best to get surgical tubing, you can buy it at a medical supply store.

The pack as a semi-rigid padding that is nearly 20 inches from top to bottom and about 12 inches wide. So, start with those measurements as the "footprint" of the pack. The thickness will depend on how much you try to stuff in it. I think it will probably fit in the underseat area if you don't overfill it. If you're unsure, you might look at the Talon-11. It has many of the same features, but is significantly smaller. My own preference is for the Talon-22, it has extra padding in the shoulder and waist straps and an ability to adjust the torso length that makes it more comfortable to wear. Between the two, I would 'make' the Talon-22 fit, but that's me. The pack as a semi-rigid padding that is nearly 20 inches from top to bottom and about 12 inches wide.

Any 2-3L hydration bladder will work fine, i use a 3L bladder in a carry case and it still works great. It works great with camel backs because the pack has a hole that you can feed the tube through without exposing any of the contents imside. Hope this helped, enjoy your new pack!

It most likely will fit. I don't own any osprey backpacks so I don't know how large their hydration pockets are. In addition osprey also makes their own hydration bladders and sometimes has specific pockets for their systems. I can however fit the 2-liter source bladder comfortably into my 22 liter Gregory backpack.

I purchased the CamelBak 90352 Omega Water Reservoir, 100 oz., Black Dimensions: 18.0 in x 7.37 in and paired it to the Maxpedition Falcon-II Backpack and it's a perfect fit. I also purchase the 50oz antidote bladder and paired it with the Explorer Tactical Assault Pack - Combat Rucksack - 17" Military MOLLE Backpack 27L, fits just fine and half the weight.

If you have a big pocket, like in those hiking pants with many pockets, it would fit. But I just threw it in my Camelbak. I did get submerged into water that day, and my stuff was safe!

A 2.5L bladder fits. But I'd suggest not putting one in. I tried & it creates a hump dead center of the pack. Makes it kind of uncomfortable. Plus, you'll be adjusting your straps through the day as you empty the bladder.

This is a very nice back pack however, it is small. If your change of clothing were light it will work a helmet would not fit. I suggest you go up a size or maybe two as to fit your helmet. I am very happy with it but i do not think it will work for what you are looking for especially if the bladder is full of water. I hope this helps you. :)

Pretty small it comes with a cool little back pack. If your familiar with a standard Jan Sport back pack it fills 75% of that.

its fits perfectly in my goruck bullet ruck pocket. this bag: http://www.goruck.com/10l-hydration-bullet-black-/p/gear-000002goruck also says "Sized to hold a 3L hydration bladder in a separate compartment next to your back"their site says its got an "18″ tall compartment next to your back perfectly houses a Standard Source Hydration bladder, keeping it in place with a retention loop."Sorry im not home to actually look at it, but the 2.5L 7" by 17" HAS to be correct from what I received. Its definitely taller than a foot.
