Emily Keddie's review
Used for the self-supported Grand2Grand 7-day, 171-mile stage race. 22L was just enough space for 7 days of food, emergency gear, UL equipment including warm layers and sleep kit, plus required race items. No bounce, and this is the first pack I've run with holding so much weight that hasn't caused shoulder pain.
