With airline baggage limits now being "no bag >50lbs" and my cold-water setup being significantly more than that when all is said and done, I've been looking for a two part bag system. Stahlsac used to have one called "Caribbean Transporter System" (W411-B), where the duffel clipped onto the bottom roller bag:
Unfortunately, it's been discontinued. You can still find the duffel part of it (W426-B) online at a couple of places, but the roller part (W415-B) is nowhere to be found. (BTW: I've posted a query in the classifieds page for it; if you've got one, new or used, let me know.)
Aeris also made their "Deluxe Cargo Bag", which had a top duffel which zipped to the bottom roller box:
but that's also been discontinued. I found it at one Japanese place, but that's a bit of a way to go for a bag.
Does anyone have a line on a two-part bag so that I can get all of my gear in without having to wrestle two separate things through the airport? You'd think gear bag folks would have filled this niche.
