unisex dual density shouler straps with hand shown
for scale. Image also shows adjustable
sternum strap and haul loop between the shoulder straps. |
The lumbar pad of the Arc'teryx Bora 80 folds
down to reveal the V-stay suspension system with load-transfer rods which
helps distribute the load evenly between shoulders and hips. Load transfer
rods can be seen emanating from underneath the thermoformed backpanel and
continuing towards the hipbelt. The transfer rods are contained in nylon
sleeves which run the length of the suspension. |
