FS [VIC Melb] Osprey Aether 70 with upgraded hipbelt

For sale is an Opsrey Aether 70 backpack in green, medium size. Had this for about over a year I think, purchased within Australia and used about a dozen times. In very good condition considering some of the hikes it has been on, with no damage to the pack itself, just little signs of wear. Osprey make a good and hardy pack, and this monster can fit quite a lot of gear in it quite easily. Love the hip and side pockets on this model, the giant J zip on the front, and the ability to remove the lid and use it as a questionably 'fashionable' bum-bag.

The big sell on this pack, which hopefully will attract some interest, is that I upgraded a hipbelt to the same that is found on the Xenith series of packs. Those are the top of the line Osprey backpacks for hiking or expeditions. The Bioform hipbelt is similar to the stock one that comes with the standard Aether, capable of being thermo-moulded to the user, but is has much more padding and is more comfortable for heavier loads. Yay, pack the kitchen sink ;)

I am also happy to chuck in the hipbelt that came with the pack, which could be used for maybe a little DIY such as sled harness in winter, maybe?

With a thing like this I think it would be best if any interested buyers inspected in person, as I want to be sure that you'll be happy with what you are getting. Please PM if you're in the Melbourne area and you are interested.

I would like $240 for the lot, considering the cost of the pack outright, and $100+ that I spent on the Bioform hipbelt.

Thanks for looking! :)
