It says farpoint 70. Why are ther s/m and m/l options? Doesn't the 70 mean 70 litre capacity?

I think the sizes are for the back straps to fit the person wearing it. 70 means the capacity, so that is not it.

The s/m and m/l are both 70 litre. The difference between the 2 is the size of the straps, waist belt, etc... s/m is supposed to be a better fit for a woman's back as opposed to a more broad male back.

Correct, the 70 means 70 but the s/m is shorter so it sticks out farther (more depth) on your back whereas the m/l is longer with shorter depth. Deciding between the two depends on your back height. I'm 6'4" so for me the choice was obvious and I went with the m/l and it fits on my back well.

The one you are looking at, is the model 24, at least from the picture. If you visit 511 there are three sizes in this same model style, you can compare and they are the 12 24 72. The number referrs to the amount of gear you can pack i.e. for half, full and two day trip. Since you seem to be looking at the 24 best guess is they only sell the 24, see The 511 website for additional model information.

I wondered about that too .. although I'd trust Garmin's website and other 3rd party discussion sites ... the ?70 units are built to contain maps for both continents, and the ?80 are the first one's with MSN Direct. Perhaps there'll be a future ?90 (390/690) range that combines the two sets of new features? :) For now, I'm just wondering whether tot ake the plunge with the 660 and its FMt raffic/preloaded POIs, or wait for the MSN-direct 680 to be released (April?)!

...depends on which one you get... there is a M-3 IN and M-3 CM... the one i bought off of this website was the M-3 IN, which measures in miles... one side of this unit also measures cm.... (but no km)...hope that helps in answering your question....

Those are the same thing. The "23" is millimeters and refers to the width of the tire. There is no "23c." The "C" after the 700 refers to the rim type and they all should be "700C"

I run a 2L Camelbak Antidote Reservoir in mine, which is what it is advertised as being designed for. So, yes, and 2L(70 oz) is the biggest you can fit in it.

Dear Terry, I do not know for sure (we have Argon 70), but I think these are Osprey standard and fit all their bags (they are very good in standardization)

I think it may've been a typo. Because the one I bought is about 2L (Liters). I don't know about the (8) except it it stands for 2.8L. However, this product is fantastic. I recommend it. "U"

I think it's just a typo. make sure you're looking at the same model you want to buy. Because there are three models, maybe the person posting the backpack didn't change the information for the size backpack you want.

I think it's the same thing - but the retailers are classifying the size by different metrics. I love mine and use it a few times a week to carry my camera and a lens in while I hike.

In reference to?...Your question has two answers. (I'll use layman's terms).Answer 1: This would be referring to overall height & length of the model, in question. (highest point/longest point).Answer 2: This is referring to the dimensions of the front & rear sights, and the space in between.

I have the Farpoint 65 and I can't imagine trying to carry it on - it's huge! As you said, it doesn't fit the carryon dimensions, and the sides are too rigid to try to squish it down and make it look smaller. I don't understand how other people carry theirs on . . .

If you look closely the two different options for each tire size (700 x 23 and 700 x 23mm) have different prices because they are being sold by different Amazon resellers. What appears to be a part number next to one of the 26x1.75 options of 47-559 is actually just another numerical system for expressing the tire size. You were right Harvey, I really didn't answer the question well enough the first time. So my advice, choose the one with the best price and best shipping! Good luck.

You might check out the Osprey Porter 46. It is a larger bag, but has two buckle positions which allow it to compress well for small loads. Suspension is not as sophisticated as the Farpoint but it's OK.

I have a 45L backpack and this one is noticebly smaller so I will have to say that it's 30L.

I'm getting really confused over this matter. Some people say its 58mm, some say 67mm. I would really appreciate if someone really help us out on this issue. Thanks

Yes, they have several different model numbers but they're all interchangeable, as long as they're Contour and not another brand like Next or TS. Best thing to do when buying anything on Amazon is to click "45 new from $7.99" or whatever under More Buying Choices. That will allow you to see each seller's disclaimers and condition notes.I'm not sure who controls the listing, but the photo shows 7080G and the item description says 7080D. I wish there were a way to change it.
