After a lot of deliberation I ordered and received a set of lift extenders and a new Metcalf for my Nice frame. Took a bit of dicking around to set up and a couple of calls to mystery Ranch but it is together.
Impressions: well made sleek pack but a unbelievable amount of straps and buckles. There much be at least 20' of extra strapping IMOP. There are also lots of buckles etc left over on the nice frame that I have no idea what they are for. It is lighter than the crew cab it replaced and would be lighter yet if they just shortened some of the straps. Going to load it up and walk around the house a bit before I do some scouting this w/e.
It is almost like they took a simple pack and made it complicated.
we'll see whether I keep it or send it back.
