Inov-8 Race Elite packs

I have the Race-Pro 12
The sides rub me raw after a good run.
Other than that, it is a nice pack.

The elites might be better?

I have an Inov-8 pack from a year ago – before they came out with the Elite series and I find it's a great size for an SUL trip. The compression system, strap system, and horizontal water bladder are great for stability. It is constructed of less-durable materials than I prefer in a pack so keep that in mind.

Hi all,

I was just reading the packs-for-running thread and was browsing the Inov-8 website. Anyone ever try the Elite 25 as a SUL pack?

$60 USD on wiggle.co.uk, looks like an Ion, with 1500 ci, 12 oz, front loading zipper, hipbelt pockets and side pockets – exactly what I am looking for, and many are modding for, in the Ion.

I'd love to see a BPL gear review on this one.

I had it and found the lack of structure counterproductive – my Exos 46 sticks to my back when running better!

Its also not tough enough, I made a small hole in it after a few days, so I returned it and luckily got a refund.

Disapointed because obviously their shoes are so good.
