I have a 4 person tent & a couple collapsable camp chairs. Would this small bag accommodate that kind of cargo? Should I stick w/ softer stuff only

Obviously the softer stuff is best to protect the surface of your car. But I use the mat that is designed for the roof bag and then I put a piece of peg board or similar thickness plywood type board inside the roof bag about the same dimensions as the roof bag. This provides a layer of protection for the vehicle roof as well as the roof bag against sharp objects. Larry Harman

Their is a lot of room in this particular bag, we traveled with 4 small roller bags and couple of small duffle bags and still had room. Probably 75 percent capacity.

This would work if you also had softer stuff surrounding it and filling in the gaps.

It would depend on how much stuff 2 people had. I really doubt it when you consider tent, sleeping bag and possibly a sleeping pad (x2), then clothes, food and gear. I used this for a 3 day 2 night outing and had it pretty full. There would have been no room for much else. Probably comes down to the type of gear you have. Hope this helps.

I would not pack it if I were solo. Would be pretty easy for a few people. It would probably pack down enough into a smaller tent bag if you made a separate bag for the poles. That would also be a good way to split the load. It would sleep 4 people nicely and 5 snugly.

It's a little tight, especially if you have a lot of gear but it's managable.If you have to sack out with a stranger it could get a bit awkward.I bought it to use as a one man tent, I carry a lot of gear and I need tospread out, I hate mummy bags.

We have x-large with 4-person tent, coleman 2-burner, coleman kitchen stand, 2 folding cheap walmart camp chairs, expensive alumnimun rollup table, and some other small things stuffed in it for the canoe. It seems like this would be a fairly big bag on the back of even the big Vulcan. The 110 liter has to be volume before it is closed, but it is still a fairly large bag. Probably better than hard bags for primitive camping if you can secure it however. Wish I could tell you more but haven't rode in decades.

You could fit in the tent but there isn't much room for gear. Maybe a few things, your light, a small bag. The tent is made to pack up small and light so it's pretty much a sleeping tent, not a hangout tent. It is designed well and once you get it staked down and tied out it's really cozy.

Yes if you are packing all your gear and food for the full 4 days. If you are not packing for 4 days then you can go with a smaller pack.

It would depend on how much gear each person takes and how long your trip will be. If you're doing more than say 1 or 2 days and you can't pack minimally than I would say no. If you're going on a short trip and can live with minimal, lightweight gear I would say yes.

Yes you could fit that size tent in this bag. But you would not be able to place the sleeping bag in the bottom portion you would have to place it along side the tent. It has a yoga mat strap in front of the sleeping bag storage opening. Their is no way to place a yoga may on the sides. But you can place one between the main pouch and the top cover pouch but would limit how much you can place inside the main pouch.

Depends on the size of the air mattress. I have had two Alps Mountaineering Lightweight Cots in this tent for a weekend. There was very little free space for gear. Twin air mattress maybe a full. With a full I think it will be tight quarters.

it is possible to put a 3days size military roocksack behind the seat. on the front its possible to put some long but not big items like tent or sleeping mat, etc. anyway cargo could take apox 30-35 kg.

It depends upon how large the tent with bag and poles is. There are great pockets with straps on both sides (usually used for sleep rolls) that you can strap about a two foot long and up to 6" diameter tent bag to. That's what I did and it worked great.

Probably not, it's pretty shallow but would depend on what you've got. I suppose a small load and you bungee corded the bag down would work.

I originally purchased this bag for tent storage but the eight person tent with campy did not fit let alone the poles and accessories. However the bag is very well constructed and kept it for miscellaneous camping items.

My son used it for a 5 day wildernes trip, but we hadably to scale down his load because he only weighs 65lbs. It could easily carry 70-80 lbs of gear. would say you can make it work if you are only taking limited clothing and food. If you are not caring much food or cooking supplies, I think it will work great. There are lots of pockets for toiletries and personal items. A 30 degree bag in a stuff sack fits in the sleeping bag section perfectly. I am 5'5" and the pack length fits me very comfort

I'm not sure on bags. However, I put a quick shade, a 4 person tent, 4 camping chairs, 2 tarps, 2 fishing poles, a tackle box, a tool box, and 2 sleeping bags in it on a trip from Seattle WA to Lake Tahoe and it worked like a champ! Its an awesome storage box. My only Complaint was that for the first time install you have to drill a couple holes. Whoever built it couldn't quite measure those out correctly. I got mine a while ago, hopefully they fixed that issue by now!

it has its own carrying bag that just barely fits everything in it, but it will fit! you just need to fold the tent itself very tightly and have someone hold the bag closed while you zip, a bit tough but nothing terrible. The bag itself is roughly 2 feet long with maybe 6x6 square sides. i don't have it in front of me so i'm going by memory but it's not bulky by any means, good for storing in a tight space.
