I&#8217;ve had the bag for less than a year and recently a leak developed at the bottom of the bladder, right at the base of the outlet&#8217;s weld. Deuter bags carry a lifetime warranty, so I submitted a warranty request.<\/p>\n<p>A few days later I had a new bladder in my possession, and instead of sending the old one back Deuter just asked for a photo of the bladder and where it&#8217;s leaking. That&#8217;s what can be seen above. This leak wasn&#8217;t huge, but it was enough that with each ride the bottom of my bag would be wet, occasionally dripping on me. I was more concerned that it would grow, resulting in an unexpected failure leaving me stuck without water.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve been really happy with the Deuter pack thus far, and good warranty support when it failed was a nice bonus.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When riding I almost always carry a Deuter Race Air Lite hydration pack (photo) containing stuff I may need during the ride.
