[WTT] Zimmerbuilt Custom Backpack DCF Dyneema Carbon Fiber Large Backpack (26.5 OZ)

I bought this Backpack off Ebay, figured I would give it a try decided it wasn't for me, due to the large side pockets (I can't get my water out... LoL). Honestly I love everything about it but the side pockets. Looking for comparable backpack.
