My 13l. pack is starting to disintegrate which is disappointing as it isn't that old and is an Osprey. My Osprey walking sack has lasted ages but this one is on its way out.

So, any good deals on this size of pack which I use mainly for long winter rides when you need a bit of extra clothing and food? Or any recommendations for particular brands which fill this niche? Probably not Osprey.....

Scott ones on Start Fitness (but no bladder so assuming your existing bladder is ok). I got the 12l and it’s ace.

They look excellent, which one did you go for the Protect or the Trail Rocket?

Osprey have a lifetime warranty.

Wouldn’t cover the bladder but the bag will definitely be covered so long as it’s a manufacture defect and not plain wear and tear, but wear and tear in a couple of months sounds hard to do?

I think it would probably be called wear and tear by a warranty dept. , the actual nylon material of the bag is eroding where the webbing for the compression straps joins which means the whole pack will flap down when it wears through entirely. It has been a couple of years rather than months but my Raptor has done nine years without any damage.
