collapse expand iconDescription

When you're going to and from a gig, you have enough to worry about and carry. This 50" hardware bag from Road Runner makes a drummers life a bit easier with it's heavy-duty wheels. Super tough, with a ballistic quality exterior and interior, it has a reinforced lining for a lifetime of use. The bag also features three exterior pouches, one on each end for smaller pieces, and a longer one for your drum sticks.

This rolling drummer's bag also has a variety of ways for getting it from point "A" to Point "B". For long walks when it's loaded, both ends have a handle for taking advantage of the wheels, or you can use the adjustable shoulder strap to keep your hands-free. When it's time to place the Road Runner case in the van/bus/car, or you've got a short trip, there's a sturdy handle in the middle for a quick and easy pickup.

Great bag, heavy duty in every way, and makes life easier

I actually bought this at a Guitar Center store and previously saw it here online. Its very disappointing though to see that it has no picture. This bag truly makes life much easier. Instead of making endless trips back and forth to my truck or gig spot to pick up things like cymbal stands, peddle's, tom legs, ect., i can make it all in one trip and i can keep any loose pieces together in one bag. The bag its extremely heavy duty by anyones standards and sometimes the amount of hardware you can pack into this bag is plenty for it to handle but can be overwhelming for someone trying to carry it. Depending on how much hardware you have you can get up to about 200 pounds of weight inside it. The straps are heavy duty and easy to remove and the handles are stiched well to prevent any kind of tearing or stress even with the heaviest of loads. Also if it doesn't mention it in the description it is a soft bag (don't let that influence your decision), the wheels are in the lower corner, the color of the bag is black, and the underside of the back is supported by some kind of strong stiff but flexible material to keep its shape and support whats inside. I would 100% recommend this bag to any one

Mixed feelings, but mostly good.

I am a working drummer and have been gigging for over 30 years. I don't know why I never owned a wheeled bag in the past, but since I got this bag in 2013, I can never go back. Let's start with the good. There is plenty of room inside the 50" bag and I keep 3 double braced stands (HH, SD, Boom) a single braced boom stand, a double tom mount, two stick bags and a cymbal stacker attachment. The "Smart Feature" I alluded to is the inclusion of two straps located on the bottom on the inside of the bag, which you can place tightly around the stands and keep them from shifting in transit, and (mostly) centered, thus preventing one wheel from coming up off the ground when you're rolling it. Genius. There is plenty of storage in the side pocket, which is basically like a stick bag. I store my floor tom legs and bass drum spurs in there, and they are causing a fair amount of wear and tear on the ends of the pocket and are almost ready to poke through. I'll probably throw some gaffer's tape in there to extend the life. There is an additional storage pocket at each end of the bag, and these pockets are not padded. The pockets are around 6" by 6" and 2 or 3 inches deep. This is a good place to store smaller parts, accessories, cables, and, if you're careful, mics. I was most concerned about the wheels failing, but so far, they're holding up well, 3 years and counting. I treat the bag fairly well, but don't baby it. I've dragged it slowly and carefully up and down stairs. The bag itself has no tears or holes, and the internal straps are as solid. That brings us to the bane of pretty much every low-cost gig bag on the planet, and the only blemish on this otherwise great bag. Zipper pulls. The zipper pulls, which are really cool stamped RoadRunner logos, are made of thin metal in the most crucial spot, and fail early and often, even when you're careful. When the inevitable breakage happens, just replace with key rings. If that's the only negative, I can live with it

    DON'T BUY THIS BAG! If you care about your wallet, save up a few extra bucks and get a hard case. Used this bag for less than a year and it ripped, after every zipper broke off.

  • Perfect except for one thing……

    This bag is incredible except for one thing……..the wheels…… they are in fact, not, heavy duty. They are plastic. I would've paid an extra five bucks if they were rollerblade type wheels. Everything else about this bag is great.

  • Works as expected

    Easily holds a couple large Hercules speaker stands, with room for a couple mic stands as well. One less trip from the car to the club.

  • Very useful bags

    This is my third purchase of this roller bag….it has many uses other than drum hardware and makes life a lot easier loading in and out . They hold up well to 3-5 gigs a week.

    While the bag itself is built well, the zipper is horrible. It broke the FIRST time I used it. Taking this bag back for something that will hold up better.

  • This is gigantic and very well built!

    This will fit hardware for multiple drum hardware sets and works well. Tons of storage and wheels around great!

    I need the internal dimensions, This bag seems like it would work to carry and store my extra long telescope and tripod. The dimensions stated in specs I would assume include the end pockets, but I need the actual internal dimensions. Thanks,

    fromMunising,

    I am looking for a carry case for my telescope and tripod. I would like to know the interior dimensions. of this bag (length, width height). I know it says 50 inches long, I need to know the interior dimensions, excluding the end pockets. My scope is very long. This looks like a bag that would work very good for my need, if the interior size is right. Thanks, -RON-
