When choosing a backpack to hit the trails, carrying comfort is paramount. On the bike, this comfort is less about the ability to carry heavy loads and more about creating a secure, solid fit on the back. It should be a compact, body-hugging fit to ensure full stability and safety – and prevent your backpack from slipping on technical, downhill sections, or in a crash. Add in wide, well-ventilated shoulder straps and a secure hip fin system, a well-functioning bike pack will ensure even weight distribution and reduce heat build-up.

In the interest of improved rider safety, deuter integrates a SAS-TEC Back Protection System in their Attack and FLYT Series protector packs. Protection plates within these packs have the ability to reduce the implied force of crash by up to 98%, and thereby significantly lessen the potential of any impact trauma. In particular, such systems are effective at protecting the sensitive spinous processes of the lumbar and lower thoracic spine regions. Within the range, the deuter FLYT features a lightweight & removable, TÜV/GS certified protection system.  The deuter Attack integrates a robust, multi-shock protector for the highest level of protection when you need it.
