They were very cheap, waterproof enough to store soaking kit in, tough, huge etc. They were about £20 for two for quite a long time.

I use one for sailing as it can take an entire set of soaking wet sailing gear and not leak it over the boot of my car. The other I use just as a packing bag for trips.

Aldi  50 litre dry bags for a tenner each.  One of my best bargains ever. I've bought six for various purposes.

I have two in the boot of my car with all my work PPE and site stuff and they get thrown about building sites daily.  They've proven extremely durable thus far.

Duff tenner duffle bags are great, I use 2, one for wet biking kit when away for a weekend, and one for clean kit and bedding.  swallow masses of kit, and stops car/van steaming up like a doggers dream.

I've got 4 Duffbags still in my possession for sale branded SingletrAction (other side is Branded Duffbag so guess they donated them or something), They're for sale on the SingletrAction website, Army Green 50L. (medium size rucksack sort of size) @ £28

All proceeds go to SingletrAction Trailbuilders ie new tools, wheelbarrows etc for the upkeep of Stainburn Forest trails etc

Could do with getting them shifted

Those other bags shown are good, but as people have pointed out, there are alternatives, like the lomo ones which I have a few of. - I was only talking about the Monster bag which you can fit a whole bike in, you only take off front wheel, turn bars sideways, pop wheel in little wheel holder area, it zips up and has carrying straps. I have yet to find a good alternative, mine are still going after about 4 years. That's the interest in duffbags for me.  It would be good to see someone making an alternative bike sized lightweight waterproof bag.

There are chain reaction and tifosi bike bags, but they are padded, which for bus/train/air travel might be handy, they dont fold up nicely under the front seat of my car. You need a lot of room to store them. The duffbag is heavy nylon/cordura type stuff but folds up to an inch thick and about A3 size. \Plus the other bags require both wheels off and a further degree of dismantling. The duffbag is part of finishing my ride and putting my bike int he car, front wheel off, into bag, off to pub. It also disguises the fact its a bike.
I guess its horse for course, it very much suits my needs, and as yet nothing else does.

You could try the Tranzbag. Thet are expensive and no doubt inferior but I've been using one for a while and it does the job.

Tranzbag does look good, twice as much but very light. Does not look as hard wearing but would defo suit the needs of cycle commuters. Nice product.

I have a Tifosi bike bag and it's not padded was about 40 quid. Rolls up small too.

This is the newer version I'm guessing:  https://www.amazon.co.uk/Tifosi-Light-Weight-Bike-Bag/dp/B004X4P7XO

Not seen that one, the Tifosi on CRC is padded. However it is still both wheels off and loosen the stem? Or probably bars off? Plus with no back wheel I'd be taking the mech off the hanger.
The tranzbag and duffbag are front wheel off only, for regular daily use.
