Weight differences between Synik Guide edition and normal bags

[thewizard]

Hey all,

I'm wondering if there will be any differences in the weight between the guide edition of the Synik and the normal Synik bags. I'm looking at getting a Synik 30 for one bag travel, and I'm wondering if it's worth waiting for new color combos with the halcyon exterior or grabbing one of these limited guides edition bags. A big concern for me is the weight, though, so I'm wondering if the guides editions will have tangible differences in on-my-back weight compared to the normal version of the bags.

The weight difference is only about 15g / 0.5oz. Pretty much just the weight of the lashpoints and the stitching to put them on there, which is what one would expect considering they're the only non-cosmetic difference.

Exactly. And for the Synik 22 GE, there's the negligible weight of a second zipper slider on the bottom pocket.
