I broke my Kuiu carbon fiber frame last year and need a replacement frame. My pack is a Kuiu 5200 Icon.
I bought it in 2014, and the frame is no longer sold.
thanks
They offered to carry me to the chopper, but I was more comfortable with them just holding my leg up off the ground. Less likely to drop to the ground if I'm already on it.
Update. I called them and they said that the lifetime warranty is for the normal lifetime of the product. For a backpack they have defined that as 8 years. So it's a product lifetime, not mine. So, no warranty coverage, but they did offer a substantial discount to me for a replacement pack.
I have an Kuiu Icon 5200 backpack (purchased 2013). Last week both carbon upper supports broke. I sent the warranty info to Kuiu and they denied the warranty claim, stating: "it does not fall within the coverage guidelines set forth by our Warranty Policy due to the age of the frame."

Thanks. I hadn't planned on sleeping in my truck the night prior, but it was easy to dress and start hiking towards the bugling elk in the dark. My surprise when I pretty much stepped on a bedded cow and she just relocated about 30 yards away.
You mentioned a house being able to "breathe." My SIP ICF home does not breathe. It is pretty much airtight, as it should be. That's why in new construction "non-drafty" houses you install an air exchanger to handle humidity and fresh air.
I have a Timberframe with a full ICF basement and SIP walls and roof. The insulation value is outstanding. Very little needed to heat it here in Northern Minnesota.
Proper bracing a must.
