Rick's new Riga Rolling Case is now available in the RS store. It's going to replace the Ravenna which it looks very much like.

Do you know if the rolling backpack's zippered compartment on the back can be locked? Thank you!

The pictures look like the Ravenna and the zippered pouches on the front of my Ravenna can’t be locked. I don’t see anything on the back but the small id pocket.

I was hoping for a new, lighter bag. This looks just like the Ravenna, just made with recycled plastic. And a few different pockets inside. Can’t see any improvement.

You can still get the Ravenna. It's in the bargain bin, for $79.

7 lb bag is a disqualification for me.

Stan, I only see the Ravenna for 199. The bargain bin is the mini one? I agree Lyndash-7 lbs is too much!

Any suggestions on what to use for luggage. I have a hard time managing a backpack through all of those big airports.
Thanks!

Backpack, my back won’t tolerate a backpack.
I use the RS rolling carry-on. The description says it’s 6.5lbs but when I got a new one a year ago, I weighed it as soon as I took it out of the box. My handy dandy luggage scale said “5lbs” (twice).
7lbs for the new Riga is too much, or the difference of a pair of shoes and pairs of pants. Plus the color choice is not my choice.
I use cable key chains threaded through the zipper tabs to lock them. I’m thinking RS uses the same style zippers on everything.
