I love my Helikon Bergen! I've adapted mine slightly by securing two of their Bushcraft dump pouches either side of the main front pouch and reversing the hip belt to act as an all round compression strap. For such a little daysack, it carries so much kit. Brilliant design.
Great video, I have been wondering how the Bergen would work with Helicon- Tex chest rig in place, your the only one I've seen do this . Have you tried the Kabar hand fishing reel yet?
Pick yourself up a MOLLE POP Flare / Extended Mag Pouch Coyote USMC Military Surplus for that silky saw. You can molle attach it now. I have a photo in my community section. It perfect. I am using a OneTigris Mini Molle Panel where I attach my knife and silky saw on a drop down. Amazing
It’s a lot better than those ‘clam shell’ style bags. That weakness designed into them. It’s a good day pack but a bit small for a Bergen. I’ve been using Berghaus Crusader Bergen that’s 100 litres since the late 80’s.

I totally agree. I love the way it carries. It really is the perfect size day pack or even a light overnighter.
That's a good looking pack. I also really like the kit.
Thanks!
Helikon explicitly states on their website, in the description field, that the main compartment is approx 18L.
👍

Thanks! No, but I've been wanting to try it.
Hey buddy, is this the coyote colour or adaptive green? Struggling to tell over the camera
The color is coyote.

Thanks, I'll definitely check it out!
love my Bergen....enjoyed...!!
Same! It's an excellent pack.
I think its more like 25l. The Rush 12 is 24l and it feels a little smaller than the Bergen.
It's possible. I'm just going by Helikon Tex numbers.

Agreed. I much prefer this design over the claim shell.
THANKS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Everything but the kitchen sink.
Definitely!
Speak up man.
