Mid-weight or light-weight? Would like for hiking in 45-65*.

My XS of Minus33 Merino Wool Men's Isolation Midweight 1/4 Zip weights 240 g, I got sweated while riding bike in winter.

For that temp range mid-weight would be way too much for me. I would go for several light layers. Your insulation needs will vary widely during hiking, resting etc. so it will be the old story of layer up and layer down.

Might want a lighter weight, this stuff is pretty warm when you are exercising.

Each person is different and their tolerance to climate is going to be different. I tend to overheat easily and found that 45-65 with this product is great. It keeps me cool in the warmer weather and warm in the colder weather. However 65 might be the extreme of this weight. I would suggest a light weight merino wool base layer if you are going to be in 60+ degree weather. You can always strip down a layer but it is hard to strip off your base layer :)

More lightweight. I am hot sweaty hiker so I would easily wear in 40s 50s. Not sure about 60s hiking. I commonly wear it over a wicking t shirt on cool mornings on the way to school from mid 30s to 60s. I will say I feel it is way more flexible temperature wise than similar weight polyester wicking shirt. I love it and have placed 2 more colors on my Amazon wish list. I hope this helps. Karl.

It depends on what you hike on. Hard pack in the ADK's they will work fine. Not make for deep unpacked snow.

I used it on a trek to carry 5D Mark III, and loved it (for the most part). It was most comfortable w/ the 16-35mm lens & less so w/ the big 70-200mm. The only time it was annoying was on the super-steep terrain. Overall I'd recommend it.

get the yaktrax walking or pro. i think the walking is the cheapest too and they are more meant for hiking.

Should be fine to pass 2W. They typically run 22-26AWG and that is suitable to carry roughly between 7A and 2.2A.

I would suggest the 65 for you...I am 5'2"-I use the 55. People 6' tall would use the 75. There is more knowledgeable, research-based advice out there, not me. Please google.

Yes, all of these suggestions sound good. I miss the little bound 3x5 handbook they supplied. It fit well in a jeans back pocket when hiking. It is not a deal breaker, but just a handy reference.

Im about 5'11 - 6 foot and have a 31- 32 inseam and I ride the 58cm frame. This bike is almost perfect for me but I would get a 57 if I could because the 58 seems a bit tall at times but after I got used to it, its perfect for me. I say if your legs are somewhat long/average, I would go up but I've also road a 54.5 that didn't seem too small (it was an expensive Fuji and Ive read that they are sized large) but then again, the seat was really high. If you go down, with the 54, you'll save weight but it might feel a tad too small and your seat might be a little higher than you like...It depends what you want. Personally, I would go up. How much do you weigh?

Go with the 20L. I bought the 10L and it's perfect for two people. If you need to make more space, attach a carabiner and hang your flip flops off that. Enjoy the back pack.

I would go with the 45. My size is usually an 11 with a wider fit. I bought the 46 and put a thicker sports insole in. It is a very comfortable shoe. Have used It over 1000 mi.

I would recommend The Kelty Redwing 3100, the pack has the "Air-Flow" tech with padding and frame for additional support. It has the waist and chest belts to keep pack close to your bod. I use this pack (mostly) for my day trips, hikes, but it definitely can handle camping periods of longer duration. Because of your size, the Kelty will be ideal. Best regards, Skeet

My sons used the Coyote 80 for Philmont which was a 10 day 80 mile backpacking trip, but their body frames are a fair bit smaller than yours. I also accompanied them and am comparable in size 6'0", 200lb and used the Kelty Red Cloud 90. It worked out great. You may also want to look at the Red Cloud 110.

So I am...well, actually, I am 6' 4" and 5/8's inch (per my son who HAD to know)...266 lbs. I LOVE my 5.11's. I have the MOAD 10, the Rush 24 and the Rush 72. Straps are easy to adjust and I love the vented back for air flow. I use mine for the last 3 years when I hike in Idaho, my 5.11 holds true. I even use it for bike trips. This backpack is nicely designed and is good to go. This was my first 5.11 back pack. The success of this made me get the 10 and 72.

the weight of this product itself isn't that much, but make sure that it need powerbank to save energy. So, totally it almost weigh 1kg, I guess. It doens't make you feel heavy in hiking. one thing I want you to consider is that if the weather condition is not steady(cloudy or going into the shade of wood) I will not want you to do. Anyway I hope this help.

having been a backpacker in younger years ,I would say this trail hawk is a little too heavy. for hiking, if you carried it on your belt it should work for you

They are sturdy and light... But lately I've been using the heavier REI 7075-T6 aluminum alloy Traverse PowerLock Cork Trekking Poles. They seem to be stronger and since I do a lot of off-trail hiking I feel more secure with these. My website is ArizonaTrekking.com

Hey there, right now I'm running a D800 with a 24-70mm and there is still a weight left so it should be ok. I am assuming the 80-200mm should be similar in weight. That being said, if size and portability is not a concern I would suggest a glide cam for smoother gliding. Else the steadicam is unbeatable for travelling.
