  • This rabbit hole was a DEEP one! I've been chasing a certain bag for a long time now. And the Gootium Canvas Rucksack is the closest thing to the "Joel Bag" that I could find. And in fact, I think it might be the actual pack used by Aaron in the Walking Dead. So in today's Real User Review lets take a look at the Gootium Canvas Rucksack and see if it is worth your cash.

    I had one of these Gootium bags for eight years before it started wearing out (2013-2021), and then I got my second one. Love them both. It IS the same one from Hawkeye, appreciated seeing that... Fixed the floppiness issue by finding a plastic office-size garbage can and cutting it to fit inside (shoutout to Dave Canterbury for the idea). Makes it sturdier and more functional for me. Thinking of shelling out $14 and getting some tactifans shoulder strap pads to improve the comfort on a heavy carry. Can't say enough good things about it.

    Yeah, I think its a no go for me on the things you mentioned, I want straps and buckles not snaps, but again better than magnets, if you want to you can JB weld the snaps closed so you have to use the buckles. cutting some thin sleeping bag padding, or the car windshield folding shade for a back plate could help, and the wax is a great idea

    Can you speak on the shoulder attachment points? One of the issues I’ve found with these $50.00 and under bags are the shoulder attachment points under medium weight. Do they feel well secured?

    • @jeffgrantMEDIA
      @jeffgrantMEDIA  9 місяців тому

      I didn’t feel as though the bag was going to fail in me at all. It was pretty solid. That being said, i wouldn’t lug 50lbs in the bag. That might be a bit much for the straps to hold. And them being basically unpadded, they would not not be comfortable.

    Have you already tried waxing this bag?
    I am really curious if/how that worked out!
    I think it would make the bag ten times better, at least!
    I was wondering if a Nalgene would fit in the side pockets, with the flaps open?
    That, with the waxing, would make it nearly perfect bag (for me).
    Looking forward to seeing this bag waxed!

      I have not waxed it yet. I’ve been swamped with work and home life. I have a staycation this month, I was planning on waxing it then. I will be filming it and making a video about it. I’ll try to remember later to toss a Nalgene in the pocket to see if it fits and report back.

      I've never seen the show. But doing a quick good image search it looks similar, but it is not the same bag. The straps and buckles are different. It could be a bag made for the show. I have done a deep dive looking for a bag as similar to the Joel bag from Last of us, and this is the closets available bag I found. And that bag looks very similar, just different straps and buckles. It is a pretty simple design, so any props department could make it with some canvas and leather. I'm sure if you got one of these Gootium bags, anyone who has seen that show, would think it was the same bag from it.

      Season 10 E22. Looks like it is the same bag Aaron uses. Which would make sense. He used what was here, and Aaron uses a leather bag later on in season 11.

      @@Leonisdarko I'll try to recall what it currently has from memory. It still has the stock 49cc GET engine and air box. I have been using Kevlar belts for most of the time I have had the bike. As well as a Polini variator added early on. I swapped out the original handlebars for some lowered NCY BMX style bars and a speedo mount. I also swapped out the original red battery box for a black one. I removed the floorboards, but cut the lower half of the tank floorboard to be hidden under the carbon fiber tank cover. This allows protection of the gas tank and fuel filter. I swapped out for an NCY lowered seat frame and at one point also had an NCY frame brace. I have sense swapped out for a Killer Scooters brace with 6 shooter pegs. I also swapped out the coolant reserve and the rad cover for for some after market parts. Clear lenses for the front turn signals and integrated tail light in the rear with a custom mount. Mountain bike bar end mirrors (use to have JDM Tanax mirrors but they sucked). Cut the duck tail off the rear fender and put street tires on. I also ditched the heavy stick center stand and put a side stand on it.
      I'm sure there are more mods. But that's just what I can think of right now. I don't remember the whole parts list, but I'm sure with some think time I can remember most of the parts used on the bike. It was a really big part of my life for a while. Always working on it, modding it and finding routes to get where I needed to go slow.
