does the ILBE have an internal frame?

Yes,, two parallel staves run from the top of the pack and are inserted into the waste belt at the bottom.

On mine there were some metal bars that act as a frame they are removable. I guess a lot if times these bags are shipped without all the parts so make sure it is complete. The one I got was perfect with all parts and no damage. You tube has a great video showing what parts should all be with bag and how everything should work.

No frame. Does not roll that easily due to foam protection for laptop, but can be rolled

the included laser that come with the bg is internal and does effect its shape , i have the laser & it fits fine.

I looked for images of this device online, and there are both (with and without). The one I installed did have them, but I'd bet they're internal at this point. Hope that helps.

I don't believe so but I would have to remove one of the two units I have and disassemble the 'frame' to see if they can be unscrewed from the inside. In that sense, the picture is accurate - you can't do it from the outside.

Yes, but the frame color is black. So the only difference is cosmetic - frame color.

I,m sorry, but I cannot answer your question; I returned the frame shortly after I got it because I could not get it to function properly.

It stands alone & the back if it is as beautiful as the front! I highly recommend this frame. Buy it; you won't regret it!

Yes. I added a recently re-released jansport D2 bag to this frame with no problems.

No frame, it is only the replacement canopy for a existing structure. Contains canopy and some new bungee attachments as a recall.

Yes it does. Not only does it add support, you can add extra stuff to the frame as well.

No. The frame is flimsy and the material degrades faster than it should for the price. I have owned it for less than six months and I am already looking to replace it. I have had to make physical alterations to allow for better ventilation and a screen drape.

It has an internal frame, feels more supported loaded them my other high end back pack was.

I would think so. I have it on the back of a vest but I think it would fit the ILBE system.

I don't know as I returned it immediatly after I received it. When I removed it from the box it was obvious that someone else returned it as one of the frames was broken.

As I recall, the frame uses clamp-type fittings. Easily assembled and durable (to Georgia weather). I recommend this cover over some of the other ones I have used.
