What trail running pack for a tall bloke...

I'm just over 6'4" and need to get myself a trail pack. I've been looking for a longer pack but don't want to spend more than around £60. I see sportsshoes do the inov8 5ltr with a couple of soft flasks for £55 but only in the smaller size. Anyone know somewhere selling the larger size for similar money? I'm quite keen on the front mounted soft flasks as don't really enjoy running with a hydration bladder swishing around on my back. Following the Great Scottish Run in a couple of weeks, my next race is a night time off road run so would be good to have it to get used to it before race day.

I'm not a tall as you (I'm 6 feet), but I've used it on a few Adventure type races and it's always been comfortable.
I use a Camelbak Rogue (older design with bigger pockets) which would have too little storage for you, but the 'frame' is very comfortable for the longer-backed man!
