This edition of Fresh Gear takes a peek at the Big Sur backpack from Hydrapak and a nice lighting system from Princeton. Combine the two and you've got a mean night riding, gear carrying combo...whoa!

Hydrapak Big Sur - $75
Hydrapak’s Big Sur is big enough to house the essentials (along with its 100-ounce, insulated bladder), yet not so large that it feels like you’ve strapped a Samsonite to your back. The pack is loaded with smart features, such as a fleece-lined pouch for sunglasses, internal pocket organizers that keep your tire levers from copulating with your leftover pizza, a dedicated helmet compartment and a reversible bladder for easy cleaning.

Princeton Tec Push - $50
At 100 lumens, Princeton Tec’s Push light ain’t exactly vampire-incinerating, portable-supernova bright. It is, however, a decent commuter light. Plus, the Push runs on AAA batteries and stows neatly in your hydration pack, so it’s also a good back-up light for those moments when your ultra-bright and expensive lighting system fizzles out.
