ER...yeah, Ben. That's 3 lbs. 7 oz, not 3.7 oz. for a size large REI UL 60. (Must've had a senior moment.)

Anyway, I've found the "redesign" has one glaring problem. The bottom nylon webbing ends of the shoulder straps attatch to the pack WAY too close to the stay area. This causes chafing on my "flanks" (and I'm a 33 inch waist). Now I'll have to move and re-attatch the [email]d@mn[/email] things on the outboard seam of the fabric piece they are on. Looked at other packs I own and none are spaced so close together like the REI Cruise UL 60. They must have used some anorexic for their model. Aaaarrgghhh!
