My CamelBak Repack LR bumbag is actually pretty compact despite having the ability to carry water. For most rides I have a few small tools in there and maybe half a litre of water or less. That along with my bottle does me just fine. I have ridden with more water and it works fine but I prefer to keep it relatively light for the sake of performance. It stays put and is very comfortable. Having anything on my shoulders however, is what I prefer to avoid. Having ridden without a backpack for a year or so I'd prefer to never do it again. I even tried an USWE but I found it moved almost as much as other packs I've used. Different strokes!
