I use a Bontrager Rapid Pack. It is super comfortable and often while I'm riding I have to feel to check if it;s still there. I use the one that takes a standard water bottle, but there is also one with a built in bladder,

also the constriction around your waist [read boep] probably isn't the most comfortable thing bouncing around...especially if laden with anything remotely heavy....perhaps a few snacks and some light accessories but when loaded with a liter of water definitely not comfy

Not at all. 

I carry a bit or weight in the boep area and pack has a pump, tools, car keys, 1.5l of water and my phone in it. 

It sits well on my lower back and moves less than what my full pack did.

OP cant see where you're based on the mobile app 

 

 

I got these packs in the Wolwespruit shop

Bought a cheapie off takealot to give a hip pack ago as I too sweat too much. I must say the one I bought has loads of room. Was happy the way it felt. Will be looking for smaller one.
