Now that this terrible bag is surplus to requirements, this gave me great joy today!  8)

Also, take this thread as my final plea to AVOID buying this particular "stand-up" bag...

I have the model up from that one and it is pretty solid, Lasted two years now. But I have heard a few mention the lower end ones have been useless.

What have you replaced it with Paul?

It's a (much better) large wheelie bag by a new brand.  I'll update this thread when they've gone live, and will also link the video review we did for it...

Can I take a guess at Hammer? I remember seeing a post on the FB page.

No, Matt, it's not Hammer.  We don't stock the brand, actually...

ahh. I fancy seeing the Hammer bags. See what their take on the bag market is like.

I look forward to seeing the pictures of your new bag. Is it a similar type of stand up to the old Aero one?

Yes, but this one actually stands up! It's slightly bigger too (100cm x 42cm x 42cm).  It's a very good bag, and an incredibly good price point as well!  :)

Really wierd that you've had that experience with AERO Paul - my bigger one has been absolutely wonderful!

I'd hope so, Iain! A bag with an £120 RRP had better be good really! Strange that they have two different stand-ups.  It's apparent which one they've devoted more time and attention to...

Agreed - but even taking into account the RRP its a very, very impressive bit of kit.

Mind you, have seen a couple of the smaller ones as well and they seem to be reasonably good, so surprised you hated it quite so vehemently!

One thing I've realised fairly recently is I like my bag to be organised.  And the Aero one couldn't be less organised if it tried.  The new one, however...  :D

To be fair, I have the black and silver Aero Tour bag and it is on it's second/third season now.
Fingers crossed it lasts a while yet although those large Salix bags look rather gorgeous!  8)
