Tenba Unveils Roadie v2 – The World’s First Rolling Camera Case with Removable Backpack Straps
Tenba, the New York-based brand synonymous with innovation in professional carry solutions since 1977, today announces the global debut of its most advanced camera carry solution yet – the Tenba Roadie v2 Collection.
This landmark launch introduces the world’s first rolling camera case with fully removable backpack straps, redefining how photographers, filmmakers and content creators move with their gear. The new Roadie v2 Spinner Seriesdelivers unmatched versatility, durability, and mobility — combining Tenba’s proven professional protection with the sleek functionality of modern travel luggage.
Built for Every Journey – From Airport Floors to Mountain Paths
Developed with extensive input from image-makers around the world, the Roadie v2 was designed to go wherever creativity takes you. Thanks to its optional removable backpack straps, this is the first rolling camera case that can be comfortably carried over sand, mud, cobbles or rough terrain — where traditional luggage simply can’t go. The straps attach or detach in under a minute, giving creators the freedom to roll or carry their kit as each location demands.
This single innovation turns the Roadie v2 into a genuine hybrid solution — a professional roller and a rugged backpack in one. It’s not just another camera bag; it’s a new way to move with your gear.
Rewriting the Rules of Camera Mobility
The Tenba design team spent years developing and refining the new Roadie v2 collection, bringing together the brand’s hallmark protection and usability in a form factor that’s faster, stronger, and smarter.
The Roadie v2 Spinners cases feature WideTrak wheels with CloudDrive technology (Patent Pending) — custom-designed by Tenba to extend slightly beyond the case’s front edge for greater balance and smoother handling. Even when heavily loaded, the Roadie v2 stays upright and stable, rolling more smoothly than most premium luggage brands. What’s more, the Roadie Roller 24 ensures easy rolling, even over the toughest terrain, thanks to its large-diameter, shock-absorbing wheels.
Quiet Confidence Meets Extreme Protection
Every detail of the Roadie v2 reflects Tenba’s reputation for intelligent engineering and quiet confidence. From the rigid corrugated polypropylene frame and water-repellent ballistic nylon exterior, to the hidden AirTag/TILE-compatible tracker pocket, the system is built for real-world resilience.
The standout of the series, the Roadie v2 Spinner Air Case, is shippable, checkable and virtually uncrushable – withstanding over 240kg (500lb) of pressure. It’s also the first Air Case of its kind to include a front laptop compartment, ensuring creators don’t have to compromise between protection and productivity.
“Roadie v2 takes the idea of a rolling camera case and completely reimagines it,” said a Tenba spokesperson. “We built it for working professionals who need to move confidently through airports, across cities, and onto locations — without advertising that they’re carrying valuable equipment. It’s discreet, adaptable, and ready for anything.”
Design That Works Harder
The collection’s shared features reflect Tenba’s commitment to real-world usability and long-term reliability:
- Add-a-Bag Strap for hands-free transport of extra gear or reflectors
- Drop-In Tripod Carrier for fast storage of stands or tripods
- Removable Floor Pads to increase interior depth for longer lenses
- Silver/Black Reversible Rain Cover for weather and heat protection
- Premium Materials including YKK Woven-in-Tough zippers, 1680D ballistic nylon, and reinforced stitching throughout
Four main configurations are available — the Spinner 21 International, Spinner 21 Air Case, Spinner 22, and the larger Roadie Roller 24, which accommodates complete lighting or cinema setups for location work.
Optional Backpack Straps (£52 inc. VAT) and Luggage Liner Kits (£56–£59 inc. VAT) expand functionality for travel and mixed-use environments.
