Planning on buying this item (2013 or 2014, opinions wlcm) for my bro, who is quite the large dude 5'10"/300-ish. Is there a major diff. btwn M or L?

you can see the size differences on timbuk2.com they have photos of each bag in each size carried by different people. They tell you how tall each person is carrying the bag. there is a difference between M and L, Large is pretty big..

Well, I've only been in the one I bought - the Mu P8. I can say that I really, really like this bike. I was worried, because I'm a big guy (6'6" 230 lbs); but it fits me and I enjoy riding it.

I can understand the lady version might not work, but, the men's version is a little bit longer.I think it is worth a try.I am a big guy, it works perfect for me.

Those sizes refer to torso sizing. In general the S/M fits torso sizes &lt; 19" and the M/L fits torso sizes &gt; 19". There is a video on the Osprey web site on how to measure your torso size.

Please? Anybody? If anyone is 5 feet tall or around there and has used this machine or others (418, 431, 438) in this line, please drop a line here and tell me what you think of it? I am particularly interested in what kind of reach it takes to grip the handlebars while striding. Does it bend you forward to reach them or can you do so in relative comfort without straining your back? ANY input is greatly appreciated!!

Im 5'9 and 240lbs and my Large Short (LS) fits me like a glove. Im no expert, but I think a Medium Tall (MT) would be best suited for you. I would prolly suggest going to a board shop and trying on a few suits then ordering the one you want. Just be mindful that different manufacturers have different sizing specifications, but the Oneill Epic is such a hot seller, most shops have them in stock.

Given that I have only bought one size, and I am a fully grown adult, it's difficult for me to recommend which one you should pick for your son. But, I did scan through the reviews to see which ones mention buying smaller sizes for their children. I came across a few that would at least come close to your son's statistics. The first one I found was bought for a 9 year old who was "Very tall" for her age, and they got her a medium. The reviewer said that if you buy a size perhaps slightly bigger than you were hoping for, the outfit comes with several straps that wrap around the waist and legs that can tighten it. (which I can confirm is true.) The only part that I've ever found to be loose is the upper chest region. I can't even seem to get that region to stay tucked in when I move around too much in the outfit. Also, another reviewer bought this for her 13 year old son who was 5'7 and 120 pounds and chose large. She said it was "a tad loose, but not too long." This is probably the example you were looking for, so listen carefully: Given the fact that you son is the same age as hers, and is both shorter and weighs less than her son, Medium might be a wiser choice - but remember I can't confirm that, I've never bought or tried any other side except for XL. At any rate, I think whether you pick medium or large everything will be fine. The medium might fit perfectly, and the large, if you decided to get that one, would at least be really comfortable, nonrestrictive to motor functions, and more importantly; he'd be able to continue using it as he ages and grows. So either decision you make I think you'll find good things about either of them. Hope I was of help.

I am a big guy at 5'11 & 190 lbs. I have a 36" waist & I bought the two bottle version of this belt in a large & it is way too big. Usable, but I have to use my daughter's hair ties to hold down the excess belt. I found the 4 bottle version locally & tried on the medium & it fits me. As I still am losing weight as I train for a full marathon, going with the medium makes sense for me.

If you Google it you can find them after a bit of searching. If you're not a small guy, go for the largest size. We ordered that for our thin 15 year old son who is 5' 10" and would not have wanted it smaller. We returned the smaller size I ordered orginally, when I also recommended they add the dimensions to the website. Otherwise he loved it on his 9 day long high adventure Scout canoeing trip

The M fit me. I'm 5'9" 145 lbs. Just adjust the straps after you put it on.

It's been a while, Al, but I seem to recall no unusual sizing issues. I sent it back, however, because it was too heavy for backpacking. If you're planning on standing in one place (on a boat or something,) this would be the ticket. I'm going to guess it'd be a medium?

Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here. I just bought the large, and I am 5'10, but I have a 30" inseam and it fits ok and I have even had to adjust the seat up quite a bit more than I was expecting. I added a diamondback pillowtop saddle, since I am new to biking also and the saddle that it comes with was killing me. If you are mechanically adept, you can assemble the bike easily but it is good to have a REAL bike shop look it over, the box store assembled mine and it ended up scratched, with under inflated tires, the brakes squeaked, handle bars were not aligned properly, and the deraillers needed adjustment Check again, they are all 3 now available at another place... most frequent GOOGLE result and for 200 less than here.

It appears Amazon is out of the Large. How about the Large Short (size LS)? It states it is the same chest and waist size but probably a shorter torso as it is listed for someone 5'7" to 5'9". Also I'm 6'0", 178lbs with a 42" chest and 34" waist. I ordered a Large and found it tight in the chest and especially around my neck. I workout but am not "thick". I had to get an XL and it fits pretty good. I guess I'm trying to say that they run a little small. Love the wetsuit by the way!

I was just wondering if you ever compared them after this post? We are considering both vehicles too for our 2 children, one who is big for his age as well. We plan to try and see them at the store together (if possible) but I found your post and wondered what your result was? Thanks

I have two boys. One is 5'6" 150lb and wears the 13". My taller boy 5'9" 150lb tried the 13 and didn't like the length and ordered the 15" and is very happy with the 15"Also - this is an outstanding value CP. I would recommend it for anyone who cannot afford a Wilson Gold or Platinum, or an All-Star. This will work for 80mph. (JV and down).

Yes, as far as I know, that means your width. M would be regular. just make sure it don't mean mens.

The 4XXL may be a good fit for you. I ordered it by accident and exchanged for the 2XXL which is a good fit for me at 190 lbs.
