The Talon 44 is the largest of a new series of "active light" packs from Osprey and the only one to feature a frame. A mid-sized, top-loading, internal frame pack, the Talon 44 incorporates lightweight materials (maybe too light if not handled with care) while offering plentiful features and an effective frame-type suspension.
