I have a two year old Oceanic Chute III BC and I just found a pin-hole leak in the bladder. It's on the back side of the BC and I think it was caused by friction due to the bladder rubbing against the tank strap either during diving or storage.
The bladder on the Chute III always looked a little flimsy to me but I kind believed that it would last longer than a couple of years and 80 or so dives.
Any thoughts on whether this is normal? I'm a little worried about just patching it (and I don't know how) and I'm not sure if I should just replace the bladder or go for a BC with a tougher bladder.
Thanks
