Description of Black Diamond Quantum Backpack - 2746-3967cu in:
|
Weight matters when you get on a massive alpine route. That's why Black Diamond pulled out all the stops to make the Quantum Backpack ultralight and ready for the mountains. This climbing pack starts off at a low 3lb 15oz weight (55L size). Strip the removable bivy pad, V-Flex suspension, lid, and waist-belt, and the weight drops to a scant 1lb 15oz. Black Diamond used water-resistant VX21 Dimension Polyant fabric to help this pack achieve its ridiculous lightness.
 |
|
Bottom Line: Black Diamond made the Quantum Backpack for one thing—big, steep mountains.

| Good Pack 08-31-08 |

| Very light and strong pack. I use it for winter camping and even extended back country tours. I picked mine up on SAC for a great deal. I'd pay up to about $160 for this pack if I would have to replace it. This pack has well placed straps and pockets. This pack is designed to be light, not 100% bomb proof. After a full season with this pack I have no complaints. |

| I had a problem with this pack. I have 2 Black Diamond packs that I use constantly so I had confidence buying the Quantum. While the pack is light I found it to be very uncomfortable. The shoulder straps and waste belt cut into me. I may have overloaded it a bit, but still the materials that the straps were made of was very unforgiving. The pack is made of a light-weight crisp plasticky material which will wear at any point that touches rock, etc. |

| Great pack! (Quantum 55L) 11-23-08 |

| Bought this pack for a week-long ski-mountaineering trip - seemed much more spacious than the 55L quoted volume. SUPER light - even when not stripped down. And seems bomb-proof - didn't flinch at being dragged through alders and spruce forest, then used as a door to keep snow out of a snow cave! All the features you need, except perhaps little wand pockets to stash poles or the odd energy bar in. Otherwise, highly recommended. |
