I'm 5'10" and have the Dream model. works fine!![]()
I've been using the 2007 "Magic" this summer, and I like it. The sternum strap is up high. I'm pretty tall (5'10"), but I still like how short & small this pack is, so that I can access my jersey pockets pretty easily. It's right for a 2-hour or so ride. But I do find the cargo space too small. Any ride longer and you'll definitely want more cargo space and a bigger bladder.
My 2nd choice would be the "Lobo." It's not women's specific, but I looks right for a 2 or 3 hour ride. It has adequate cargo, and a huge bladder.

I just bought this women's Deuter from TE. I love the separated mesh back from Deuter and Vaude as it has the best ventilation that I've found. Hubby has a men's version so we could compare side by side. The SL straps and hip supports are definitely built around the different curves of a woman's torso.

I also have the Daystar. It's listed as a "hiking" Camelbak...but I use it mountain biking all the time, and I haven't been arrested for it yet! I also use the Classic for long, hot, road rides - but I admit, the Daystar is more comfortable on my body. It's just too big and bulky for the road (for me).

Thanks for the tips ladies! I'm heading out to the LBS to check out their inventory. I think it's time to treat myself to a little something.
