New Frame and Bags from Kifaru International

[Shrek]

I'm starting to think Aron is a robot ! I see him posting here well past midnight and have talked to him at 5am while he is out cardio backpack testing. The man seems to never sleep , always on the phone giving advice and still finds time to design new products...and hunt ! My hats off to him.

I'm waiting to order my frame. I won't be ordering a pack! And I'm thinking about keeping my duplex for putting heavy weight in to workout with... decisions decisions!

I would like to see pics of the bikini duplex with just pods and pockets and a cargo panel for a light day pack with meat hauling capabilities. This was what I wanted a duplex frame for.

X2 on this!

I'd like to see the water bladder attachment. Thanks.

This is what I was wondering about as well. Thanks for taking pics!

Aron, we need to talk. I am still up with lil Scout on my chest as I didn't 'properly burp her' and just read all of this. My order is supposed to ship in a month and I need to hash out a few details.

Is there a "shelf" above the bottom opening in high camp bag?

Aron, you wrote that bikini frame is more comfortable with lighter loads than duplex frame. How much weight does it take to get them equal in comfort if you understand what I mean. 20 lbs? 30 lbs? 40 lbs?

You also wrote that Kifaru won't be offering the bikini frame in other colors than black because it's another type of fabric that is lighter that the fabric on duplex. Will it be as durable in the long run?
I would happily carry an oz or two more if I was able to choose a color on the bikini frame that matches the bag I choose as with the duplex frame. I really hate black... but I really like the weight savings with the bikini...

I'm on the stair stepper, so excuse any typing issues!

I would say around 50lbd.....most of that is do to the fixed torso pads on the duplex, when compared to the bikini. This is obviously my opinion and is subjective, but the torso pads shift/roll on the b frame and allow for a little better torsional/lateral movement. U also get better venting.

The black material is very durable, just like the standard stuff, BUT it only comes in black and the weight increase was 3.5 ounces for standard.

No shelf/divider on HIGH CAMP.

The way you have been answering questions, the same questions over and over on this thread you should take a couple of days away from all of this. It is amazing how dedicated you are to great service I just hope you don't burn your self out.

He sure could probally use a break. Aron is a HUGE asset to Kifaru. I have been carrying a Kifaru for 13+ years. I fully believe they were at a stand still evolution wise until Aron came along. What has gone on in the past year++ I honestly believe never would have happened without him. Thank you for what you have done.

Thanks for all the info Aron. I really like the K-hook idea and their potential versatility. Looks like another great Kifaru product.
