Ainoita risuja kyseisestä laitoksesta, mitä itse keksinyt on lähinnä cummerbundia kasassapitävä naruviritys, joka ei oikein luottamusta herättänyt, mutta millä tahansa klipsulla tai vastaavalla uskaltaakin rymytä vaikka mitenpäin. Samoin etupaneelin irallaan oleva vetoketjun vetopää aiheuttaa ylimääräistä ääntä, joka on turhan terävä omaan korvaan.
Asian saa onneksi senkin korjattua teipinpätkällä tai jollain väkivaltaisemmallakin konstilla, kuten korvaamalla metalliset vetimet naruilla tai vastaavilla. Jos hinnasta pääsee yli, niin tämä kelpaa kyllä erinomaisesti radalle ja kertauksiin (Tai isojen poikien leikkeihin).
Suosittelen.

Takaisin hyvien puolelle perkeleet! Tai sitten oikeudenmukainen hinnanalennus puuttuvista paneeleista!

Kannattaa kuitenkin tarkastaa että kaikki osat toimii toistensa kanssa, melkein jo myymälässäkin. Itse sain ensin kappaleen, jossa etupaneelin vetoketju oli eri mallia kuin muut, eikä sen takia lisäpaneelit toiminut. Leka kuitenkin vaihtaa sen ilman suurempia kysymyksiä, koska jopa Sioen on tietoinen kyseisestä virheellisestä tuotantoerästä.

Panels are easily replaceable with velcro and zippers. Fits with the greatest ease of use and adjustments. Not so cumbersome and "in the way" of most actions. With the day-pack, it still stays balanced and tight to the body. Great buy and I highly recommend.

- Super modular with removable zipper panels, extra pads, cumberband with room for 3 mags or 2 side plates
- Lightweight and breathable
- Shoulder strap adjustment is easy, just remove the included shoulder pads and adjust as necessary using the hook and loops
- MOLLE attachment points everywhere
- Cable and tube guides alongside the edge of the rig and shoulder pads
- Fits a 10x12 SAPI plate snugly and has an extra compartment next to the plate for 3A backers
Cons:
- Hook and loop points aren't exactly the grippiest and need to be pushed down to fully hook
- Price is definitely up there with other competing rigs
- Shoulder straps starting to wear if you wrap an elastic headlamp around the front plate bag
TL;DR: One of the best plate carriers I've ever bought and despite it's high price point it's absolutely worth the money and you won't ever have to get another.
