Freitag's Inflatable-Structure Rolling Suitcase
air pressure at altitude is much lower than at sea level, inflated things go pop during flight.
Hi Jarvis, we've updated the post to address the excellent air pressure question.
hi Rain,
Take it from someone who used to travel for a living, those wheels are going to last five minutes, especially after the luggage loaders learn its inflated and may bounce.
I love this project - suitcases take up so much space when idle in the home, and I have always been a fan, although not a customer, of the Freitag brand. One concern I have - air pressure and using this luggage on flights. When shipping bikes it is recommended to relieve some pressure from the tires. Anyone know what they're talking about regarding this air pressure and flight-specific issue?
It's a pretty cool idea, but retail pricing is $620 USD. Perhaps its Just me but that seems really high.
Would you, then, say the price feels somewhat inflated?
