Bag Week 2018: Mission Workshop’s Radian rolltop starts simple but grows piece by piece

In the end I think the Radian is the best option for anyone looking at Mission Workshop bags who wants a modular option...By all means take a look at putting a Radian system together, but don’t neglect to check if any of the pre-built ones fit your needs as well.
Mission Workshop the Radian Review: The road-warrior’s travel pack
www.slashgear.com
Yes, Mission Workshop’s may be expensive, but if you think of it as preemptive insurance the price tag makes a whole lot more sense. I’ve no shortage of bags in my closet, each promising plenty but falling short in one way or another. Of that catalog, and after thousands of miles of testing, I have to say that the Radian travel pack is by far the best I’ve used.
