Anyone lay there hands on one yet?? Would love some specs and pictures. I'm looking for something about a 14r size for rambling on the mountain in the summer that doesn't have a external frame. I love all the other so packs I have and have been looking forward to this release

There is a thread on Backpackinglight from some of the folks that tested prototypes
Neat looking UL pack.

Kevin, are the rumored specs pretty close to what you guys will list? 2400ish for volume? 33-36 oz? 50ish lbs load rating?

Is the torso length adjustable?

Any product pictures available?

Release date?

I'm in the market for a summer pack for my wife, she's not a heavy hauler.

Specs are mostly accurate except volume is more 3700 , 2 sizes , static torso, 36 -40 ounces , load rating depends on size and fit but most people feel it does well at 50. Release nest week

There is a 2400 pack on the breakaway the "Short-Tail" coming out next week as well.

What is the probable weight of the Short Tail?
Not exactly sure as we are getting all that together , but I believe under 4 lbs including the suspension. #

Update - 3 lbs 12 is what our product page says

Kevin, thank you for posting those links. The Flight One looks pretty darn slick.

I'm curious, I see the 50ish pound "comfortable " load rating. Is this determined by frame height vs functional load lifter angles, pack fit, frame design, etc or are there limitations in the construction and fabrics as well? Is it built lighter-duty to come in at that low weight?
