Deuter Race 12 backpack
This pared down bike backpack with good weight-to-comfort ratio benefits from the breathable deuter Airstripes back system. Providing athletic mountain bikers with good airflow across the back and a snug fit for technical trails. A sternum strap and mesh hip fins give the pack additional stability. With bluesign® approved body fabric made of 100% recycled materials, and components made using environmentally friendly, resource-efficient manufacturing practices, the Race meets the highest environmental standards and is climate neutral, and PFC free.
PFC Free
This deuter product is free of per- & polyfluorinated chemicals. deuter thus reduces the use of environmentally harmful substances that pollute the environment and health. PFC is used, among other things, as a coating for rain protection, as they have water-, dirt- and grease-repellent properties. Instead, deuter now uses DWR (Durable Water Repellency) impregnation that is harmless to health and the environment.
100% recycled PET material
The fabrics used for this model are made of post-consumer PET bottles.
Product Offset CO²
By increasing the integration of low-carbon materials and technologies in its collections, Deuter is working on a long-term basis to reduce its carbon footprint as much as possible. But despite these efforts, it is not possible to make a product climate neutral. Whatever cannot be reduced in products today, Deuter wants to compensate for it in cooperation with Climate Partner. In future, by purchasing a Deuter 'CO² offset' product, the amount of emissions released from the production and transport of the product will be neutralised through a voluntary offset and invested specifically in a selected social and climate protection project.
Excellent weight-comfort ratio for more energy
Deuter has chosen a well-balanced selection of materials, optimised the tailoring, minimised the use of materials and reduced the features to the essentials. The result is a particularly light and durable cycling backpack with an excellent weight/comfort ratio.

Technology
Deuter Airstripes
AirMesh 3D mesh-lined, anatomically preformed shoulder straps for total freedom of movement. Sternum strap ensures a snug fit. Breathable mesh flaps on the lumbar belt stabilise the load. Two moulded layers of foam with AirMesh lining and minimal back contact maximise airflow. Flexible aluminium slats inside the foam profile can be folded to fit snugly against the back (Bike I, Superbike and Trans Alpine).
