Hiya Chaps

I need a decent 75 litre'ish bag, on wheels for going to the Alps. I've had a few in the past and they've been either hard to move around or fragile.

I like the idea of a soft bag, with extendable handle and wheels.

Anyone got any suggestions?

Cheers

Ricks

[Usual suspects]

DaKine. Blah, blah, blah, DaKine
[/Usual suspects]

I recently bought an Osprey Shuttle. Mine is slightly larger than you're after, but after two trips (US and HKG/SIN), I can report that it is teh orsumz so far! Rolls very easily, and feels as tough as old boots.

Smaller ones are available.

DaKine are good, but really rather common. 😉

Just get a good ballistic nylon bag of your choice and a folding sack-truck, strap bag to truck, job done. The truck can then be used for festival camping, or anything else.
something like this one, what I found a short while ago for putting all my camping gear on...

Bag like this one:

Whole lot about £55, works for me, the larger wheels work betterer over rough surfaces, the wider spacing makes it more stable.

Evoc world traveller, rigid, tough ridiculously easy to wheel and lighter than most.

Evoc world traveller

It is a regret of mine that I didn't get a multi-coloured striped one to match my bike bag. 8)
