The Aircontact Lite 65+10 Backpack by Deuter is the largest pack of this type, but maintains a lightweight frame that can carry up to 50 pounds of gear. For anyone who backpacks regularly, the Aircontact Lite 65+10 will provide upt to 4550 cubic inches of storage space with a suspension system that provides the ultimate in ventilation and support. Incredibly lightweight hollow core aluminum "X" stays allows for torsional rigidity and flexibility increasing the actual load distribution. The Vari-Quick system is available for easy adjustment to any back length and the breathable padding pumps air through the hollow chamber of foam giving you more ventilation as you move, keeping you drier and less fatigued.
The traditional backpacker's answer to the modernization of gear.
"Fast and light", as the slogan goes. Highly technical Deuter-Ripstop 210 material, special buckles and lightweight Aircontact construction make the ACT Lite models low on weight and high on features.

great pack | |
| Rating: |  |
| id been looking for a solid pack that offered light weight, large carrying capacity (volume and weight), comfort, versatility, and durability and all for a good price. after reading some great reviews about this pack, i decided to pull the trigger and ordered it. since then ive taken it on two backpacking trips and put this guy through its paces, filling it to capacity with gear and water. in addition to the above qualities, i found it distributed weight like a champ and it has several pockets that are very useful for organization of camp gear. and somehow it still looks almost like new. the only drawback i can think of is that im not too fond of the color, but im more of a neutral color sort of guy (forest green would be nice). Id definitely recommend this pack to any practical backpacker | |

| This is the first real pack I've owned, and I love it. The size and weight are perfect for me, as I need it to hold enough for a few days but I don't want it weighing me down. It comfortably fits everything I need for a weekend excursion with the wife or longer, I suspect, though that remains untested. Also, every strap and harness is extremely quick to adjust. The buckles and all other hardware feel very solid and I expect they will last. The zippers are mostly good, though one or two give me trouble every so often. My overall comfort level wearing the pack is very tolerable of course I don't have any prior experience to compare it with. As for the sweat reduction claimed by the product, I | |

Awesome alpine pack | |

| I bought this pack specifically for a rainier climb. did an acclimatization trek to 10k with about 65lbs worth of gear and it felt like I was carrying 30lbs. Excellent lateral stability; the pack doesn't sway it clings to your back. The Vari-quick adjustment system is awesome in that you can micro adjust the pack fit according to the size of the load in about 15 seconds whereas other packs take bending and moulding to do the same. The pack is bomber, solidly built for euro style alpinism and trekking. The small pouch in the hipbelt was great for handy access items like a small gps /topo/compass or power bars. Overall a great pack because of its usability/quality/fit rivals some ospreys I've used but at a fraction of the price! | |

| I ordered this backpack for a trip to Europe. It has a big enough volume to handle food and clothes for 2 weeks. Another important merit is its lightness. I feel comfortable with it. | |

High quality, but... | |

| After reading many positive reviews on this backpack and doing some research, I decided to give it a go and ordered one. Upon receiving it, I immediately noticed its excellent craftsmanship and overall quality. The materials it's made out of seemed durable and strong during initial inspection. However, after loading up the pack with some gear for a trial run, I noticed it felt rather awkward for me and as a result seemed somewhat uncomfortable. I tried rearranging the gear inside and making some suspension adjustments but to no avail. As a result, I sent it back to Altrec for a refund (at no fault of their own, of course). Had my torso been even just an inch smaller, the pack would most likely felt much more comfortable and natural on my back. If that were the case, I would easily have given this backpack a 5 star rating instead of a 3 star rating. Again, this is no one's fault but my own. Regardless of the fitting issues, this pack 's overall quality, lightness, and apparent durability seem more than adequate. | |
