hmmm, been climbing a bit...full time for the past 15 years, guiding, alpine V and VI routes, ice, rock, you name it....can't say I own a "leader" pack...is this something dead bird came up with to sell a new expensive pack that is suppose to make one climb better, like their $600 jackets? |

Mind you everything that went wrong have all been easy fixes. But for a $500 pack kinda crazy you cant run it over with a Mack truck 100 times! SO you ask what is so great about a $500 pack that falls apart then? The ride and the W/NW Dyneema material. Despite one of the lower ice axe buckles coming clear off, one of the buckles on the lid snapping in half when i was unlatching it, the buckles that hold the lid on coming undone along with various other buckles just coming undone for no apparent reason and loosing them in the snow i will still buy another Cilo Gear pack. Just something about the simplicity of it i really really like. ...I own CiloGear. I'd love to hear more from you about the problems you've had with the pack. It sounds like you've had problems with the buckles, and as I wrote I'd love to hear more. Please call us at 503.305.3858 or send an email to cilogear @ gmail.com and let us know what's up. Did you lose the buckle or did you rip the strap off? Well, anyway, I look forward to hearing from you directly and I look forward to helping you getting your pack set up the way you want. |
