help Tom Bihn Synik 30 FAQ
What material is the Tom Bihn Synik 30 made of?
The Synik 30 is constructed from 510-denier Cordura ballistic nylon for the exterior and Tom Bihn's Halcyon or 420-denier nylon ripstop for interior organization. Every Synik is manufactured in Tom Bihn's factory in Seattle, Washington.
Is the Synik 30 carry-on compliant for flights?
Yes, the Synik 30 is designed to meet carry-on size requirements for most major airlines. At 30 liters it is at the upper end of what most carriers accept, so it works best as your primary overhead-bin bag rather than an under-seat personal item.
What is the difference between the Synik 30 and the Synapse 25?
The Synik 30 has a larger capacity and a front panel that opens fully clamshell-style for easier packing, while the older Synapse 25 has a more traditional top-loading design. The Synik line also adds an internal aluminum frame sheet and a dedicated laptop compartment not present in the original Synapse.
What size laptop fits in the Tom Bihn Synik 30?
The Synik 30 includes a padded laptop compartment along the back panel that can accommodate laptops up to approximately 16 inches, depending on the specific cache size you select. Tom Bihn offers interchangeable cache sizes so you can match the sleeve precisely to your laptop model.
