[QUOTE="cowboyarcher, post: 956029, member: 14163"] The Mystery Ranch Longbow or Crew Cab would suit those uses well also, and would have the option to add bigger bags later. . . Or, alternatively, a Bighorn or Dragon Slayer, but these are fixed, internal frames. Given what you describe as your use, I agree that the Bikini Frame would be too long at times. I really think you'd be happy with one of the internal frames you mentioned, or the MR Longbow. The latter will be more versatile, and comes in about half way price wise (around $450). What most fail to understand is that the Longbow can be detached from the frame and compressed over a stuff sack or something similar, to expand it's capacity. It's 20" frame is a bit short for heavy loads, but it is a pretty decent frame in terms of versatility. There are options on the market for turning it into a heavy hauler also, if need be. I've run both Kifaru and MR frames, and I would say the MR is more versatile, albeit heavier, and not as "turn-key." [/QUOTE]
