Nooo, not so much 'meh'.
I am talking about that Premier line they just announced. Much more improvements, so really neat. Not a carbon frame however.
You can see on their website

I just returned from a trip with a Luggage Works bag that's been in use for about 15 years. The only maintenance it has required has been new wheels; I use inline skate wheels and bearings, replacing them every few years. It's as solid as when I first picked it up at the stop-over store. This bag always gets checked. It's never a problem. Not to say it wont' be one day, but I've had a lot of mileage out of this bag; the only complaint I'd have is that it's heavy, empty. Otherwise, none. I wouldn't use anything else, personally.

It looks good and improves on issues I have with my current LW bag.

Default LuggageWorks Carbon 2.0

Has anyone invested in the LuggageWorks Carbon 2.0 Pilot Rolling Bag? There are no reviews and I am debating between it and the Stealth Premier. Just wondering if it is worth the extra $250...

I'm seriously considering it as my first bag. I can't find any information about it anywhere. I thought about going to the AA Academy store to see if they had one in stock to put my hands on.

now if i can just get some of the spacer/bushings from LW
Ill raise this post from the dead to say thank you! Some penetrating oil and a hammer did the trick for me. Was not looking forward to finding the correct bolts. Cheers

FYI: for those looking to solve the rusting issue, you can order these bolts in titanium for $10 a pop. You can specify how long you want the threads too, I'm getting 5/8". Can get them Here
