Help Finding a Pack for a Petite Woman

We just picked up the EXO EXS for my lady. She's 5'7 116 lbs, athletic build and its fits and looks really nice. We had to opt for the 23.5" stays as that worked for her better than the 22" frame. I'm looking forward to our winter backpacking outings in 2025 to put it to the test but so far so good.
 
EXO K3 EXS. Working great for my daughter. I’m sure the K4 would work just as well.

My wife is 5’9” and 130 lbs, quite petite. She runs a 24” Kifaru duplex just fine. Any standard pack with lots of adjustment in the frame should work, unless she’s got a really short torso. If so, you can always look for a 22” duplex…that’s what they made that frame for.

Thanks all for the input! We ended up settling on a Kuiu frame and pack that was on sale at a pretty steep discount through the outlet. It seems like it'll work quite nicely.
