That’s pretty interesting - I had some experience with the Roswheel parent factory about 6 years ago and the manufacturing quality was pretty good, though the luggage and accessories were terribly designed. Things have cleared moved on loads

Felt like this deserved a trawl after I spotted this review. I'd already heard how apocalyptic the LEJOG ride was, so fair to say the bag was well tested

This is not an advert, but to be transparent, I have been testing kit out for them:
My friend who used to work as a designer at Rapha moved to Shanghai a few years ago and has been working for Roswheel - They have just launched their new series of bikepacking gear which is mentioned here on bike rumour
I've been testing out the road collection and I'm really impressed with it. Welded seams and well put together - I'll be using it in the TAW in June. In particular, the seat pack is really solid with no sway at all, I used at on the Transwales last weekend with all my lightweight sleeping kit in it. I really like the look of the off road stuff but have not tried any of it.
The full frame bag I'm using is a sample and I'm expecting a new version soon. They are hoping to do custom size full frames bags in the future which would be pretty cool and I'm pretty sure it would be a first in terms of custom fully welded construction.
