I have a rucksack style camera bag. When this is fully loaded it is fairly heavy (for me with a bad back).
So, I was considering a 'wheely' camera bag - until I looked at the prices :eek:.

This is mainly for travelling abroad when all (or most) of my kit would be 'carry-on', when I arrive at my destination I can decant some of the kit and make the bag lighter.

With all this in mind I am considering a cheap set of luggage wheels from the bay like these which can be had for less than a tenner.

Ok, I've got to my questions

Anyone have any experience of these wheels ?

Will I have any problems getting them though airport security ?

Cheers
 
i think the wheel's option you said about is the best i think
ive just spent £199 on a wheeled backpack
 
I used to have a set of these and used them with no problems until one time when the collapible handles wouldnt collapse and i ditched them.
 
I have a Tamrac Super Pro 14 shoulder bag and it has a piggy back option to attach a trolley and wheel it. If you get a trolley you need to make sure it's got decent sized wheels as really small wheels tend to tip over a lot. My trolley was bought with a shopping bag (which I've never used with the trolley) but it does make it so much easier than carrying the bag. I don't go abroad though, so I've no idea about going on board a plane with it.
