Eberlestock F1 Mainframe Pack

— Show original

I bought the F1 a second time and I am more than happy with it! Since I hunt and fish a lot, I was able to test it extensively. I think that 5 stars is far too few for this excellent product from Eberlestock. Keep up the good work!!!!!

Fast delivery, top quality, gladly again

Nice load carrying frame, good quality. I am knocking it one star for the awkward design choices Eberlestock is famous for. The laser-cut material could easily accommodate at least two more rows of molle cut-outs and the lines of the laser-cut molle should go all the way to the top ant the bottom of the material. The loops on the side to accommodate the compression straps should be more, giving many more choices of fastening different loads, also at least two should have been included on top and bottom of the molle panel. The shoulder straps though nicely padded, are sewn on their sides in a way that ensures that they will cut in to the bearer's chest if a real load is carried, this is especially awkward since Eberlestock has an nicer padded shoulder strap system with other packs designed to carry lighter loads. The waist belt was a nice surprise, since although I always thought it looked flimsy it is actually quite sturdy and should be sufficient for most of the loads, though again it is somewhat of a head-scratcher since Eberlestock also has a much thicker hip belt in their line up, and this is a (heavy) load carrying frame. Last but not least there is no real connection between the hip belt ant the frame itself other than the velcro attachment and the pocket it sits in, this makes it seem to me that the frame is more hanging of the belt, instead of pushing in to it. Having said that, I still think this carrier frame is well worth its money, there are just many awkward design choices that seem to hamper it, which could easily be fixed at little to no cost at all, hence the 4/5 stars. I will try to give an update when I have put it through some serious use. For reference my go to backpack for now was a "Bergan's of Norway 2095 130 Ltr. Alpinist"
