Brand new poster here, and long time forum creeper, but I'm in the market to sell and buy some new stuff and wanted to get community feedback before I make another blind purchase.
I'm 6' 6" and currently using a Kifaru Duplex Lite 26", and my wife is 5' 3" and petite, and was using a DL 24" until she deemed it too heavy even when unloaded. Granted, she's not a hunter, so I guess she doesn't need a pack that robust, but I am pushing if not exceeding the height for the 26". The load lifter straps are barely at an angle when loaded down.
So, once I am able to post her frame for sale that'll come, but I'm curious if the EXO K4 would be any better for myself? I previously owned a Seek Outside Revo frame, and with the 4" extensions, it was great. 2" extensions were ok with light loads. My problem with it was that I didn't particularly care for the way the pack attached to the frame. That could have been user error but I tried a number of things to make it more secure and less floppy, but was never successful.
Anyone else out there have suggestions on setups/brands?
Appreciate any input!
