The Six Moon Designs Comet is a convertible pack. Optional flat aluminum stays ($10, 4.7 ounces) are easily inserted into sleeves to create an internal frame backpack (27 ounces), or removed to use it as a frameless backpack (22.3 ounces). The hipbelt is also removable, further reducing the weight to 17 ounces. When I reviewed the original Six Moon Designs Comet I was impressed with its comfort and versatility, but I thought the construction was a little rough. The updated 2007 Comet adds some welcome improvements and is much more refined overall.
