Here's what other sites are saying:

From Moosejaw:
"Free Shipping. Black Diamond Speed 30 Pack (Fall 2008) All-purpose, spartan rucksacks for mountain use, the top-loading Speed 30 Pack by Black Diamond is perfect choices for all-day missions in the Rockies, Sierras or White Mountains. The speed 30 can be stripped to flyweight class thanks to its removable top pocket, hip belt, framesheet and stay. This pack is built with water-shedding 210d nylon (plus 400d on high-abrasion areas), have dual ice axe attachments, crampon patches, are hydration compatible, and come in multiple torso lengths."

From Backcountry.com:
"Load the absolute minimum of gear into the Black Diamond Speed 30 Pack and step up to the biggest alpine or ice route you can possible imagine doing in a single day. Black Diamond used 210D nylon and a basic suspension system to keep this pack's weight right around two pounds, and you can shave another 15oz by removing the lid, waist-belt, and suspension system. History doesn't get made by carrying more gear. If you can't fit it in here, you don't need it."

From RockCreek:
"The Black Diamond Speed 30 Backpack is the perfect choice for fast and light summit ascents in a day, or hikes from sun up to sun down. Designed with a deluxe V-lite suspension that can be pared down for super fast moving by removing the top pocket, padded hip belt, framesheet and stay. Made with a water shedding nylon, plus 400d on the high abrasion areas, you get a lot out of this lightweight, convenient pack. Get up and go with your necessities for that all day, fast, summit push."

Men's Speed 30

"This pack is perfect for day trips when you want to make sure you have all that you might want, or weekend trips when you want to make sure you have all that you need. It definitely does not intrude on arm movement. It says it has a place for an ice axe, but it does not hold one very well."
