I just got an email from this company saying they have a newly designed 40L backpack available July 4. It’s on sale as well during their launch. The dimensions and weight look very appealing. I bought their 28L version in the backpack style.
They also have a new backpack roller on the site.
Just passing on the info, unfortunately cannot give a personal review, but Happy shopping if you’re in need of packs like these!
Seems many others found it appealing. It shows as 'sold out'
The price is good for what you get. I'd be tempted but I already have 3 backpacks that range from 28-46 liters.
Joe I may be mistaken, but I think it’s showing that bc they become available to order July 4.
In the meantime, Sierra has this Eagle Creek 40L bag for $80. https://www.sierra.com/eagle-creek-tour-travel-40-l-backpack-small-medium-black~p~7gkhd/?filterString=s~eagle-creek%2F
"Its the Kellys" YouTube channel just put out a video this morning, packing this new backpack/roller bag combo for a trip to Africa. She is going to put out a review of the bag in a week or so.
I have a combo backpack/roller bag (the Osprey Daylite Carry-on Wheeled Duffel 40 Liter) and while the bag is great for using as a roller bag, it isn't very comfortable as a backpack. I would imagine that the Bagsmart combo isn't terribly comfortable, either. It isn't available for sale yet.
How would you even use a roller backpack and a 40L backpack? I've certainly seen two backpacks being used together, but Bagsmart doesn't show them used together in any way except for the backpack sitting on top of the roller bag. So why the extra weight of the backpack straps on the roller bag? I remember Rick saying many years ago that a bag that does two things probably does neither of them very well. This was before he started selling a wheeled backpack, of course.
