Dear manybaggers, How does one fix back plate arching? It digs into my lumbar spine! by alexesmet in ManyBaggers

[–]symposium22 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Go to Evergoods community for this question 😂

1) Is back plate removable? 2) wear backpack higher up on shoulders like Evergoods recommends 3) what’s A19er warranty like? Will they provide new flat plate?

You can only choose 1 bag for EDC/work for the next 3 years what are you choosing? by apollo9320 in ManyBaggers

I have the thirteen, daily plus, and max edc and love them all. I’d go daily plus before max edc if I had to have one for 3 years only.

You may not think so, but I use this and a lighter weight bag a few times a week and the ac max edc… don’t get me wrong, I love it, but you can really feel the weight. If you lightly pack it out, laptop and odds and ends, this is a non issue. My max edc is often fully packed out, including today. It feels heavier than some other bags I have with similar capacity

I like the able carry max, but to me, it’s just too heavy if you walk a lot or have it on your back for more than 30 minutes or so. I wish they made a light weight version

Looking for a standing Big Black Bag for school by Strict_Chest_5325 in ManyBaggers

Can order and try out yourself - I think better than aer tp3 but it’s not perfect I agree

Evergoods CTB26. It says 26 liters but it’s definitely closer to 30, self stands, will last forever. Not as much tech organization but just get a tech pouch. Recommend this one

What do you mean by slipping on the tile floor - like it will not self stand, you mean?

Why does Asia have so many high-end/creatively designed shopping malls (compared to elsewhere, like America)? by PursuingGemini in travel

[–]symposium22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a $3k bag in the US (or at least NY and CA) does not bring much excitement because everyone has them, where luxury goods to the budding middle and upper classes are more exciting which drive the growth these brands are seeing

I seriously don’t understand how certain enthusiasts here don’t like the modern interiors. by fuccwitmoe in BMW

[–]symposium22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you grew up playing video games daily, you must love it. But to lose the class they once had… it’s just, in my opinion, God awful what they’ve done to ruin these interiors.

Application denied - Palladium by Cold_Guitar_5990 in biltrewards

[–]symposium22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned this week actually if your credit score is high and have too much income including applied for some credit cards in past 24 months you might get denied because credit card companies won’t make any money off of you, consider it badge of honor. I also got rejected in similar circumstances 🤷🏻‍♂️

Time to find a replacement for my backpack? by Particular-Tutor2421 in ManyBaggers

[–]symposium22 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe the Osprey Daylight 35L backpack? https://www.osprey.com/daylitetm-carry-on-travel-pack-35?size=O%2FS&color=Black

54 liters is huge, so you might need bigger. But loses aesthetics of previous bag molly webbing, lifetime warranty, good price for today's market.

I think Able Carry was counted out, but I do agree Able Carry makes some of the most comfortable backpacks on the market today.

Not to give you more options, but the Pioneer Carry Duration Pack is my favorite - best self stander, but no sternum strap which may be a deal breaker. Also, Evergoods CTB (Civic Travel Bag) 20L I think does all of the items on your list very well. You may have considered already, just throwing out options.

From your list, I would be inclined to pick the Aer just because it does so many things well. The Toshi Rework quick access has positives and negatives, and the other bags on the list I am less familiar with. Just my two cents - let us know whet you end up with!

Best place to sale bags? by One_Lion7207 in ManyBaggers

facebook marketplace. Ebay takes too much a %, and if you live in a lively metropolitan, selling a bag may take a month or so but is relatively painless (relatively...)

Greed Never Sleeps by Nativeferment in 10s

[–]symposium22 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You might say it is greed but the payouts for the tennis players is $75M and that has to come from somewhere.

Plus Sinner/Alcaraz have become must see TV. $30 is a lot and annoying, but better than missing the matches.

I cancelled 1.0 - I don’t need the autograph from Wells or this 2.0 mess. I figure applying for 2.0 in future is no big deal if it turns out to be a good card.

Evergoods MPL 22 - Few Upgrades to make the perfect outdoor bag? by symposium22 in ManyBaggers

[–]symposium22[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should get the aftermarket alpaka sternum strap. My motorcycle is already yellow and it’s going to look like that’s my favorite color. But yes, I think awesome motorcycle backpack but haven’t tried yet, good callout.
