Description
The Deuter Race Air 10 is a riding pack built around airflow. The mesh back sits off your spine on a spring steel frame and splits down the middle, so it follows your back when you are tucked over the bars and lets the heat out on a long climb.
Who it's for
Mountain bikers and gravel riders out for a few hours. Deuter rate it top marks for both, and four out of five for longer tours. The 2-5 kg recommended load is water, tools, a spare tube, a shell and food: a few hours at Nerang, a loop at Mount Coot-tha, or a day exploring the gravel roads of the Scenic Rim.
Capacity, and what actually fits
10 litres, with expandable volume when you need to stuff in a jacket. A 3 L hydration bladder sits in the elasticated inner sleeve, and the front pocket has a tool organiser with a zipped mesh pocket for your tube, levers and pump. A side pocket holds your phone and stretch side pockets take a gel or a spare bottle. It measures 45 x 25 x 16 cm.
How it carries
The Aircomfort back is designed for riding: a flexi spring steel frame holds the mesh away from your back, and the panel is split down the middle so less of the pack touches you. Perforated shoulder straps, mesh hip fins and a two-way sternum strap hold it snug on rough descents without trapping heat.
Fitting it
One size covers back lengths of 38-54 cm, which Deuter match to riders about 158-195 cm tall. Set the shoulder straps so the pack sits high and close, then snug the hip fins and sternum strap before you drop into the first descent.

Weight
870 g. Most of that is the steel-framed, ventilated back, which keeps a full bladder stable and your jersey drier on hot summer rides.
Looking after it
