I went with the bikini/ nomad combo. I know I probably would be happy with the Exo but the longer stays and options on the bikini sold me. Expensive but I know I will be happy. Plus if I decide to sell it the resale on the Kifaru packs is crazy. It's almost like a rental program if you buy one and sell it. Low rent even..lol.

Just out of curiosity, what is your expected ship date?? I am trying to decide if I should try a bikini frame. I love the duplex frame but for my uses, I think the bikini would suffice. Anyone who's ordered recently chime in with ship dates if you would, please. I'd want to get as many miles on it as possible before September. Thanks.

4 weeks is the lead time on all pack systems right now

Your wallet may be upset for a few months, but you'll understand after using the pack why there aren't bad Kifaru reviews. The biggest draw back is the $$, but if you can get past the cost you'll be happy. The wait time is worth it as well.

My wallet is well accustomed to the kifaru squeeze. Like I said, I love the duplex frame. :)

Thanks for info, armyjoe.

Yep. 4 week ship date on mine all so. Just in time for my CO scouting/ 14ers trip. I can' t wait to put some miles on it. I just wish I had made up my mind a month ago.

I ordered a bikini+nomad+camp bag+grab it on 6/1 and I'm set to receive it today 6/30. Kifaru has their delivery expectations dialed.
