Did the backpack thing w/ bladder for years on the MTB. Went with a hip belt and it's been MUCH better, but it's not for everyone. Moreso though I'm wanting the larger volume for the road bike and also my MTB has enough room for those extra volumes (and less on the hips then). Have more than enough 750ml bottles that are nearing end of life so time for "upgrading" to 1-2 big volume bottles. Gotta say I just love the Polar lids which you can lock closed so they don't leak.
