Lower edge of very stiff molded hip belt was cutting in too much, painful and caused muscle cramps on ascent on sev tries (Rainier, Gannet, Granite, Big Horns, etc)(pack loads 45-65 lbs). Tried to refit the suspension, adjust all straps to no avail. I am by no means slim, but not significantly overweight (5' 11", 188 lbs). Old pack North Face Burma Road, similarly loaded caused no problems whatsoever.
