That was a great video mate with lots of info, I was looking on line at those Rab packs and it’s definitely the sort of pack I would like as it’s has a proper back system. Anyway what great weather you had and happy birthday to you. 👍🏕️

How many kilos did you carry in the backpack and did the pack handled it? I'm eyeballing the 50 L RAB Muon ,but i'm concerned about the padding of the shoulder straps and the side pockets being to loose. Can you please share your thoughts about these ? Thanks.

[@TheOutdoorExplorerUK]

Hi I would say around 8kg but I didn’t weigh it before. The padding on the shoulder straps didn’t bother me I found the fairly comfortable. I’ve watched a few reviews of some well known shops with this bag and because they haven’t adjusted the side compression straps correctly it makes them look like what ever you carry in the side pockets will fall out but this isn’t the case . As with any bag I would definitely recommend trying one on before buying because you need to make sure it fits correctly. I will try and do a little review in a few weeks and a closer look at the bag 👍

@@TheOutdoorExplorerUK Thank you.A detailed review would be great!

[@scang5506]

Hello, was thinking of getting the rab muon 40 but was concerned about the shallow side pockets for holding a water bottle. How did you find this?

[@TheOutdoorExplorerUK]

It wasn’t too bad . I had the same concern about the side pockets but I didn’t have any problems with it.

[@scang5506]

@@TheOutdoorExplorerUK Thanks for reply, that is good to hear. Did you have to put your 1L bottle more horizontally than vertically as I think at one point I saw it lying flat in the side pocket but it was hard to see past your arms? Could you also possibly secure it with the compression cord in the side pocket? I am just concerned as I would need it to be pretty secure as I enjoy some light scrambling as well.
