Notes from our data check
Backpack, so no wheels. The source does not say whether straps or grab handles are inside the stated size. osprey.com returned HTTP 403 to every request. Ellis Brigham (UK): 55x35x23 cm, 1.47 kg, 40 L, 16" laptop. Backcountry: 40 L and $199.95, but no dimensions. A search-engine extract of osprey.com showed 55H x 35W x 23D cm / 21.7 x 13.8 x 9.1 in and 1.47 kg (the Osprey Canada page reportedly says 22 x 14 x 9 in and 1.547 kg); I could not confirm either directly. Amazon: 1500 g, $195.96, in stock. Derived values: inches converted from the published cm (/2.54, 1 dp); lb converted from the published kg.
