WHY THE PRICE IS JUSTIFIED

The engineering case is unusually clear for its price: a high-quality PC shell, substantial double wheels and a low-play telescopic tube. A specialist’s multi-year test found no functional weakness after flights, rain and cobbles; its smooth shell will nevertheless show scratches.

MATERIALS

shellpolycarbonate
