Single tank backplate

Thankyou all, it seems that the most easy way for me to get what I looking for is to make one myself.

or buy a Freedom contour, I saw one for sale a couple month ago that i regret i did not buy.

I've got one. It's 2.22kg without a harness or wing. However, I thought you said in the first post that it was out of your price range. Also, there's usually a waiting list to get one. I think I waited 6 months?

2.22kg seems great, the plate i use today weights 2.8~2.9 kg without STA, i don't rely know what the STA weights, but probably at least 0.5kg more likely 1kg And today i feel a little to much whitout weights, if i can cut 1kg or little more its great.

Yea, i think it is out of my price range (i can maybe flex my price range a little), and as you say its wait list , but sometimes you find used things for a great price, i did 2 month ago, and regret i did not buy it.

Sam Miller III mentioned a backpack. I didn't look at it yet but that sounds like what I'm heading towards. They already have the single tank groove molded in and it only requires a single tank band and no crotch strap (at least I've never needed one) plus the harness is as simple-as-can-be. Since I like the weight of the SS backplate for trim etc I'm thinking about pouring about 5-8 lbs of buckshot inside a plastic backpack and seeing how that goes. I'll need to fill in the extra space with sand or something and it might be interesting taking it through airport security. I have a backpack that I attached about 6 pounds of lead to and like it a lot, except for the extra thickness that we are trying to avoid.

I'm a bit late to the party, but if you're willing to pay the H tax, there's this plastic BP with weight pockets to consider.

It's made for single tanks, and you can load it with 4x4lbs weights so it becomes at least as negative as a steel BP with a weighted STA.

Halcyon has a carbon backplate with integrated single tank adapter, but you will need a wing with camband slots eg the traveller pro

See the post above yours.

And according to H themself, it isn't carbon. It's nylon.
