The Exped Lightning 60 was designed for trekking where low weight and carrying comfort are crucial. Its 60 litres give enough space for extra-long trips.
The T-Rex carrying system has fewer contact points for good ventilation and freedom of movement. The back length adjusts precisely, and efficient load transfer to the hip belt keeps it stable and comfortable even with a heavier pack.
