Interesting, every time I have visited the page it says 'coming soon'

Tokeen 2600

The Tokeen 2600 is built from the chassis of our ultralight Terminus packs with a minimalist design specialized for scouting, day rips, and endless everyday applications. An internal frame efficiently carries heavier items like spotting scopes and large water bladders while keeping the overall...

Yeah they had one run and sold them out pretty quickly.

Being that you have some time on it now I’m curious on your thoughts on the fabric? Specifically noise after being broken in?

Iv got a terminus coming, planning on it as a do it all. Only ever used xpac and cordura so wondering how this compares.

I’d say Ultra falls right in between Cordura and XPac, noise wise. Nothing scientific, but I’m pretty sure the pack is quieter than when new. Even new, it’s quieter than XPac.

Will it get quieter yet, not sure.

This seems to be everything I wish the avail was. But until my avail wears out it will have to do. The avail just seems to do most things right but nothing perfect

@mtwarden looking at this day back hard sounds like a 10 at this stage especially at its weight ?

Ross - it’s a solid pack for sure; you’re not going to want to load up a ton with just two carbon stays/plastic sheet for a frame. But that’s not what SG designed it for either. It certainly could be used in conjunction with one of their hauling frames as a day hunting/meat hauler though.

Challenge has been struggling with production of UltraPE. If you come across a used one or catch the restock, it might be your only chance for awhile.

Scheels in Johnstown Co had one when I was there Saturday. Don’t know if they will pull from the floor and ship.

With Scheels I'd bet if you call that specific store they would.

If anyone is looking for one euro optic has them.

Euro optic offers a good discount for mil/first responders too if you qualify.

Bought a Tokeen in January '24. I have around 100miles with it. Longest hike to date is 16miles round trip from Stinson Beach to Mt. Tamalpais east peak in San Raphael, CA with around 17lbs water/gear. Very streamlined bag and carries well, better than the Avail I sold a few years ago. My only gripe is no forward hip belt pulls and I would prefer external stretchy pockets on the sides for easy water bottle carry/access.

Just today, I finished sewing in a couple of loops for the hip belt forward pulls. Works well and will see use in a few weeks in Cloud's Rest in Yosemite.

Nice work- looks factory

Good review. I’ve been using one all summer and agree all the way around. The inward pull belt would be nice and also if it had the standard 2 strap belt like the Kiowa and other packs to hold pockets and Nalgene securely. I have not found a way to hang a Nalgene off that belt that’s useable. I’d also trade one of the top pockets for a side stretch pocket to fit tripod/trekking poles. Overall liking it a lot though.

 

[mtwarden]

Yup-it's a very good pack, but with a few tweaks could be even better

I've found a good shoulder pouch for a 16 oz Nalgene (and then keep whatever additional water I need in the pack)- made by Mountain Laurel Designs.

I've found a 32 oz Nalgene to be too heavy on a shoulder strap, but the 16 oz rides just fine.

Can you Lobby SG to add bottle pockets so I can buy one? I have no idea why they wouldn’t have them on there. Looks like a perfect carry on/travel/day pack otherwise

This is the reason I got rid of the Avail, and wont be buying this Tokeen pack.

 

[mtwarden]

I don’t think any of the SG packs have stretch pockets. They can get hung up some in brushy country, but they are handy.

They don’t even have to be a stretch material, just give us a shock cord collar or drawstring.
