ULA Equipment's Circuit SV Backpack is a lightweight and reliable workhorse pack with a 48L capacity. This framed pack offers the perfect balance of durability, comfort, and ultralight design for long-distance hikers and backpackers. Built with a sturdy UL frame, this pack provides excellent load transfer to the hips, reducing strain on the shoulders for a more efficient carry. This pack is made for a hiker who has gotten their total pack weight down to under 30lbs but still wants to have the support of an internal frame pack. Designed for hikers who crave a sleeker profile that doesn't compromise on performance, this pack is built to go the distance. There’s a reason ULA packs are a top choice for thru-hikers and adventurers!

Features:

Internal Frame with carbon fiber and Delrin suspension hoop in conjunction with a dense internal foam frame and a single aluminum stay to give you excellent back panel support, maximum load control, weight transfer, and pack rigidity without limiting your range of movement
Removable hip belt
Hip belt with larger-than-average pockets and 4-point adjustable for best fit
Roll-top closure with Y-strap for top compression
