8 reasons to buy
- Experts and owners praise the bag's high-quality feel, highlighting the smooth zippers.
- The fabric is bluesign-certified for compliance with environmental protection, health, and safety standards.
- All users love the organizational insert, which also has a heavily padded pocket for eyewear.
- The bag has multiple tarpaulin-lined pockets for storing wet, damp, or muddy gear.
- The light-colored interior helps with finding items.

6 reasons not to buy
- Fitting a full-face helmet is challenging.
- The organizational insert cannot be removed, only partially folded in the bag.
- The insert lacks a solid bottom, so small, loose items slip through.
- Larger footwear might not fit in the dedicated external shoe pocket.
- The single carrying strap means the bag can't be worn like a backpack, like many competing models.
- When fully packed, the bag is too large to qualify as a carry-on for some airlines.
Bottom line
The Thule RoundTrip Duffel is a 55L bag for cyclists. Experts praise its thoughtful design and overall quality. However, the longest test is just one year. The internal “honeycomb” storage compartments are enough to make the bees jealous, although some wish this insert were completely removable. The RoundTrip earns top marks for organization, with dedicated pockets for eyewear, a helmet, and shoes. Full MTB helmets and large footwear may not fit, and the bag is likely too big for airline carry-on if full. Overall, experts and owners deem the Thule RoundTrip Duffel a solid investment.BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy.
