Please help me. I think I need a duffle bag that's (a) wheeled, (b) can also be worn as a rucksack and (c) has a volume of more than 50l.

Any suggestions? I know @Giles will suggest Ortliebs, which are great, and I'm atm tending towards the Patagonia Black Hole Wheeld Duffel, but I wonder if there are alternatives, and possibly cheaper options.

@endo Osprey and Eagle Creek for example.
Look here. or for Osprey here.

@endo I’ve been using the Black Hole wheeled duffels for a while now and love them. The airline bent/broke one of the wheels and Patagonia replaced it for free. Other than that, they have been issue free.

The wheeled bag can not be worn as a rucksack though…I do have the non-wheeled version and they work pretty well. The issue is that you can make them very heavy quickly and to carry it could be uncomfortable.

I have an @Alex . He can carry my Ortlieb wheeled duffel 140 as a rucsac.....

@Aetas Osprey was not on my radar, will check. With the Eagle Creaks I'd have doubts about it's durabilty. Do you have other experience with them?

@goosehd the black holes are awesome. Mine has gone through rough trips and is absolutely intact. It's a bummer the wheeled ones don't have shoulder straps. I thought they did.

@Giles then I need to borrow @Alex

But note that they did close down, and re-opened recently under new ownership. So not sure we are talking 100% the same quality etc...

@Tobi I thought they closed, but then saw the sale. That’s good to know.

@Anesthetist I heard somewhere that production of the new Trakke bags had moved overseas, but I don't know for certain.
