EXO K4 Now or Wait for the EXO K4X

Depends on if the 23.5 is long enough for your torso to start. Going higher doesnt help but being to low hurts. Ideally everyone would buy long and trim until they just get enough angle with a full load.
For my height and build, EXO originally fitted me with the 25-inch frame, and it performs very well. However, I later tried the 23.5-inch frame to improve maneuverability in thick brush and timber, and the difference was immediately noticeable. Despite the shorter frame, the EXO suspension system is so effective that, in my experience, the 23.5-inch frame does not feel significantly less capable under heavy loads compared to the 25-inch frame. As a result, I have found the shorter frame to offer a better balance of mobility and load-carrying performance.
 
I go the other way and much prefer a longer frame. I'm only 5'10" with a 20" torso, and the 25" ark frame is barely enough for good load lifters. The qui-ya with a 28" frame and seek outside goshawk with extenders to 26" work far better for me. I'm debating between the 25" and 26.5".
 
Steve or Mark,

Is there a date when individuals will know whether they have been selected for the K4X test group?
Finalizing some things today and sending out notifications this week.

The level of interest exceeded our expectations, so we have been doing our best to accommodate as many packs/testers as possible. Essentially, we will end up with a "1st run" and a "2nd run" of packs.

The 1st run will ship from late July and into early August. The 2nd run should ship later in August.

We will notify people who have been selected to order for the 1st run, and separately let everyone else know what ordering will look like for the 2nd run. Both groups should be notified this week.

I know there will be questions, but hang tight, and we will be answering those in our communications.

Thanks for being patient with us!
