I have a 19" torso and am 5'11" about 160 lbs. GoLite's site recommends a Men's Medium for their Jam2 series but it's close to the Large split. Any regular users confirm their sizing or experience with similar torso sizes and M or L on the pack? Many thanks.

I am 5'10" and have a 19 inch torso. I went with the medium. A large would have been too big in my opinion.
I am 6'1" and I have a 19.5" torso and have found the need to go long torso on all Golite packs I have owned…all 3 of my Jam2 packs were large along with a pinnacle, ion and several of their internal frame packs too.
Nothing will let know better than using one. Personally I'd start with the large.
Maybe that doesn't add too much confusion to your decision.
You really need to try them on. I am a 19.5" torso and generally would fit in the medium range of things but the large felt much more comfortable. Remember also that a frameless pack will lose torso length with it is loaded up. I might consider sizing up….
The lengths of the shloulder straps might be different between the sizes. A longer strap would allow for more adjuastments.
Sports Basement in SF has the and you can try them out. But we're the same size and i'm happy with a medium.
