RBW - Internal Frame for Expedition Canoe Pack

A well-fitted internal frame turns a good canoe pack into one that carries noticeably better on long portage routes.

The RBW Internal Frame slides into a dedicated pocket inside the Expedition or Paddler canoe pack and adds meaningful load structure without permanently changing the pack. The frame combines a flexible plastic sheet with two aluminum stays housed in webbing sleeves. The stays can be removed, bent to match the curve of your back, and reinserted for a customised fit, which is the kind of adjustment that makes a real difference when you're carrying a heavy load across a multi-portage day in the Canadian backcountry.

Available in two sizes to fit the Expedition and Paddler packs specifically, with a hook and loop closure securing the frame in place once installed. At 500 grams it adds modest weight for the load transfer improvement it delivers. If you're already running one of these packs on serious trips, the internal frame is a straightforward upgrade worth considering.
