Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box

[pikapika]

hi, all,

 

Any users of the Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box can share its pro and cons (and i know its expensive) as compared to givi simply 45L.

 

The givi simply 45L is rounded (hump) at the top and does this make it able to carry more things as compare to the flat top of Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box?

 

GIVI simply 45L is also uses softer flexible material (i think) and it does allow me to squeeze in more things (compress), can Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box allow squeezing in more things and close,lock and open easily?

 

How is the internal space capacity of both boxes, although both is 45L, which one actually can squeeze in more things?

currently i am able to put in my open face helmet, about 20 to 23trs size nike bag with 13.3 inch laptop inside, small book of singapore bag, parking coupons, raincoat (top only), gloves and 500ml water bottle in my GIVI simply 45L, wonder i can do the same in the H&B?

 

How is the locking mechanism of the Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box compare to the GIVI simply 45L monolock.

 

finally is it worth to upgrade to Hepco & Becker Journey 45L Box from GIVI simply 45L

hope kind souls can advice.

Have u tried going down to mtechnik? The shop is the authorised dealer for h&b in singapore. I been there around 2 weeks back to get my panniers and i remember seeing the journey top box on display. U can just go up to the shop and see/test for urself, will be better than all the hearsay from other ppl.
