In the world of carry-on backpacks, the LBBJKT The Peloton Rolltop Bag and the Ortlieb Atrack BP stand out as notable contenders. Starting with the LBBJKT, it's a robust model that impresses with its 35-litre capacity. Made out of 1000D Cordura with water-resistant polyester inner linings and YKK Aquaguard zippers, it surely appeals to the adventure-prone traveler. With dimensions of 53" x 36" x 12", it's still airline-friendly. Reviewers praised it for its bike fitting, with one even strongly recommending it to cyclists who don't mind the hook system.

Comparatively, the Ortlieb Atrack BP is another durable and trusted backpack selection. However, it's the more compact of the two, measuring 25" x 26" x 56" and weighing 1.3 pounds. Although smaller in capacity at 25 liters, it's built with heavy-duty PS21R and excellently configured to protect your gear from harsh weather conditions. The Atrack BP still secures approval from cyclists with its comfort, secure fit and robustness, despite its lower airline compatibility at 38%.

Comparing the two side by side:

The Peloton Rolltop Bag is praised for its expandability from 35L to 45L, dedicated 17" laptop compartment, well-thought pockets for organisation, as well as its strap system for attaching larger items. Conversely, the Ortlieb Atrack BP shines in its weatherproof construction, adjustable harness system for comfort and custom fitting, and a slender fit designed particularly for bikepacking. Both these carry-on backpacks have their distinct strengths and standouts, ultimately making your choice dependent on specific requirements, whether it be space, comfort, airline compatibility, or a specific area of use like biking.
