I am trying to dump my 5.5 lb REI 85 pack and looking at the ULA Airx. That right there will save me over two lbs. Does anyone have any experience with this particular pack?
Thanks.

I have never had any issue with the bags myself, making me rather unique I guess.  And I have carried one full for the better part of a day on a few occassions when it was a long way between water sources.  But I would not recommend that on a regular basis.  They strike me as easy to puncture, although I never have.  Maybe some of the alternative bags would work better for that.
