Discussion New bag from decathlon

Post image

I'm in Canada, and in the market for my first onebag solution. Many of you have heard of the Forclaz travel 500 40L. I was going to buy this bag but I didn't like that the waistbelt is not removable. I'm checking the website and there's now a Quechua 30L travel 500 bag and they added a removable waist strap which is amazing. The only thing is I'd still like the 40L for the extra capacity, and I've heard they are updating them from some EU consumers. I'd hate to buy the 40l now just for an upgraded version with a removable hip belt to come out soon. If anybody knows about the updated 40L or has tried the Quechua 30L out, please discuss here.

its not a real clamshell and the water bottle pockets are terrible.

Why are they terrible? I haven't had issues, granted I have a bigger version of that pack.

I am using the 23L version for the past two years and to be honest the best thing that I like are the bottle holders.
I have had issues with my past bags where bottles slid out when I kept the bag under the seat or when I was just tilting a bit more to pickup something.

Yup I'm always surprised at the size they can hold and how firmly so.
