I haven’t looked too closely at the Race Exp Air, but the DS18 would be bigger and, I think, probably heavier/tougher.

However, if you’re biking in and around the trees, I think the DS18 would probably be a good pack in that it shouldn’t stick out from your back to snag on branches. The material seemed pretty rugged, especially when I compared it to some of my other packs.

Regards,
Steve

How does this pack stack up against the Deuter Race Exp Air Daypack?
I’m thinking of round town but mostly just off road biking in Golden, looking for a pack to hold tools, water, neccesites withou being to large for MBT biking use.
I’m convened the Race is on the verge of to small, how is the DS 18 for size empty?

Thanks
Dave
