Berghaus's
rucksac pixies - Hi Tim! - have been hard at work for the last year
with some massive revisions to their non-technical sacs to complement
the updated Extrem range that's just hit the shops.
We'll tell you more next week - the Dart is no more as of 2004 for
example - but the centrepiece of the collection is the new Freeflow
Light pack.
Based on the hot-weather friendly Freeflow trampolene-type
airspace back system, the new Light is approximately 40 per-cent
lighter and aimed at the weight-saving zealot who still wants to keep
a cool back.
Detailing is very neat. The back sytem uses a geodesic type carbon
fibre cradle for lightness, has various cut-aways including one in
the hip-belt and a pocket in the lid.
It's simple, it's light and we reckon it's a nice bit of kit.
Price is £65... More on Berghaus's sacs next week including the
new 49zer0, you'll never guess how much it weighs...
