Perfect for extended trips globetrotting around the world, the Helion 80L Wheeled Travel Pack from Deuter will reliably carry your gear as you travel from city to city.
It converts easily into a backpack by zippering back the harness cover to reveal the comfortably padded carrying system. To allow easy switching from rolling to carrying the shoulder straps can be left out with the handle extended and the large profile wheels with quality bearings can be covered by the hip wings when carrying. Pack your gear into the lockable main compartment and stabilise your clothes and belongings with the luggage straps and streamline the bag with the compression straps. You can also grab this pack from different angles thanks to the three padded handles on the top, sides and end.
The Helion 80L Wheeled Travel Pack from Deuter is easy to manoeuvre wherever you go and adaptable for all travel environments.

How weather proof are these bags1 answer
How long would they cope with sitting on the tarmac in rain
Nadine - Preston(6 years ago)
G'day Nadine,
Deuter doesn't apply a weather/rainproof rating for this bag as a whole or the fabric in general. I'd therefore be hesitant in leaving it out in the rain. It might be worth buying a rainproof cover such a Deuter Transport Cover for when the situation arises.

Cover flap over backpack straps1 answer
What do you do with this when using the bag as a backpack? Have watched the video but it wasn't covered in there.
Vicky - Casuarina NSW(6 years ago)
G'day Vicky,
The flap that covers the backpack straps tucks in just above the shoulder straps so it's kept out of the way when you're carrying it as a backpack.

Is the Harness have the capacity to be removed to save even more weight?1 answer
On the main competitor (Osprey) which I am also considering, the Harness can be completely removed. This is a great feature if you are looking for another 500g.
JP - Kensington(7 years ago)
G'day JP,
The harness of the Deuter Helion 80 Wheeled Travel Pack can't be detached. While I understand your desire to save weight, our experience tells us that detachable harnesses are nowhere near as durable or supportive when being used hence why we like this Deuter model so much.

60L or 80L?1 answer
Is there a great overall difference between the two (apart from 5cmH), I've been reading reviews and Deuter Helion have come up great. I would use the trolley more than backpack (re: previous answer to you being 5'7", im 5'5"). Was looking at the 60 but for a little extra $ is it better to have the slightly larger 80? Thanks :)
Mags - Sydney(8 years ago)
G'day Mags,Â
In general we would say that the 80L is more suited to men as they generally have a longer torso, wider shoulders and can bear a heavier load.Â
Although it may not seem that way from the dimensions, from looking at them person - the 60L and the 80L are quite different in size.Â
For your height (5'5") I would definitely go for the 60 to fit your back length and ensure you can carry your load safely and comfortably on your back if you need to when you're in transit.

Are there buckles/clips so you can attach a day pack at the front when wearing pack? What are the options for easily carrying a day pack? Are there Deuter day packs that link in with this system?1 answer
What are the options for easily carrying a day pack? Are there Deuter daypacks that link in with this system?
Monica - Gerringong(8 years ago)
G'day Monica,
I've just double checked this with our display models, and the buckles on the Helion 80 are too large to be compatible with the smaller day packs in the Deuter range so they can't be linked with other packs easily.Â
There probably isn't an extremely reliable way to link a wheeled pack with a smaller pack, but there are some products on the market that you cna use to strap/buckle your travel gear together, so that may be an option for you.Â
I would recommend taking a look at Caribee and Black Wolf as they make wheeled packs that come with detacheable day packs.Â

Is the 80 litre suitable for shorter people - I am 5'2 1 answer
judi - perth(8 years ago)
G’day Judi,
The Deuter Helion 80 is a fairly large model so if you were intending to only carry it on your back once or twice for short periods it may be fine – but if you want to switch between carrying and wheeling, this size would likely be too large.
I’m 5â€7 and I found it too big measuring it on myself to give you a rough idea. I’d recommend considering the Deuter Helion 60 size as that would be a lot easier for you to carry as a pack.
Emily - Snowys(8 years ago)
Has the extendable handle got two positions, or only in and out?1 answer
I'm referring to the Deuter Helion 80 Wheeled Travel Pack. If this one hasn't got 2 positions, do you have another brand that does? I'm too short to use the fully extended handle.
Thanks
Lindy - Canberra(9 years ago)
Hi Lindy, with the exception of a couple of the exceptionally large packs that do not need extra length in the handle, pretty much all of our travel packs have handles with two positions. Please don't hesitate to contact us if you want confirmation on a particular model before ordering.
