In our 2017 Gear Guide issue (April/May), our editors tested and reviewed a variety of new coolers, totes, cleaning tablets, and bottle openers. Here are the results.
Icemule 20 Liter
Test lab notes
The Icemule 20 liter cooler (far left) is rated to hold up to 18 cans of beer plus ice, and we can confirm that capacity. It’s trendy and sturdy, and we liked the adjustability of the roll top and straps—it’s designed by people who ride bikes. The material that rests against the wearer’s back is breathable mesh, and the comfortable straps are wide and thickly padded. It’s the perfect pack for riding with beer on a fixed gear.
