The LBBJKT The Peloton Rolltop Bag and the Briggs & Riley Large Roll Top Backpack face off as two competitive carries in the backpack market. Given the similarities between the two, deciding on which to purchase can be a matter of personal preference, intended use, and brand loyalty. However, each does have unique features and specifications worth consideration when choosing your preferred carry on backpack.

The LBBJKT Peloton Rolltop Bag, as the name implies, uses a roll top closure method. Crucially, the bag's capacity can expand from 35L to a whopping 45L - excellent for when you need extra space. The material is robust 1000D Cordura with lightweight water resistant polyester inner linings and YKK Aquaguard zippers adding to its weather-resistance. In contrast, the Briggs & Riley Large Roll Top Backpack is slightly smaller but utilizes a coated and woven polyester material. Despite the size difference, both models can snugly fit a 17" laptop in a dedicated compartment.

β€’ Height: LBBJKT (53 inches) vs Briggs & Riley (21.6 inches) β€’ Width: LBBJKT (36 inches) vs Briggs & Riley (38.1 inches) β€’ Depth: LBBJKT (12 inches) vs Briggs & Riley (48.2 inches) β€’ Weight: LBBJKT (1.6 pounds) vs Briggs & Riley (1.4 pounds) β€’ Capacity: LBBJKT (35-45 liters) vs Briggs & Riley (34.8 liters) β€’ Airline Compatibility: LBBJKT (98% of airlines) vs Briggs & Riley (51% of airlines) β€’ Material: LBBJKT (1000D Cordura) vs Briggs & Riley (Coated and woven polyester) β€’ Laptop Compartment: Both can fit up to 17" laptop

Given these comparisons, the LBBJKT Peloton Rolltop bag seems to carry a bit more edge. Not only is it compatible with nearly all airlines but it also has plenty of well thought out pockets that keep things well organized. A reviewer even echoes, "If you're a cyclist and you're looking for a suitable backpack, and if you don't mind the hook system to open and close the bag, then you should definitely take the Peloton into consideration. I highly recommend it." This may just be the selling point for those tired of chaotic bag interiors.

While the Briggs & Riley has a similar design and convoy of features, it doesn’t boast the same adaptability with airlines as the LBBJKT Peloton Rolltop Bag, nor the contrasting interior that aids item visibility. Still, it ultimately comes down to individual needs. Are you a cyclist or a chronic over-packer? The Peloton could be your bag. Do you value lightweight over organization or expansion? Briggs & Riley could be your pick. Both are mighty contenders in the carry-on backpack arena. Choose wisely.
