I did not see a thread for all the brands, so lets start the discussion.

What brand and model do you have. What do you like. What dont you like.
Have you every had to deploy it. Which dealer did you order it from.

I'm alive because of one... buy whichever one you like that you can afford.

I like ABS, 2 bags, more volume, volume comes from below more than others, and the trigger system is proven, with no cables.


Get anything you can... you can always upgrade later, but at least for now you'll have something.

Im an ABS fan, it cost a few dollara more to fill the canister but there is never an issue with temp. when deploying. Never have had to pull the trigger,

They are very important to have if you ride in the backcountry, or even off Trail. I bought one for my 13 yr. old son this yr. He is following me way to much, and I want him safe. Pluse it shows him that you must have the right gear when ridding in the back country.
