The one I currently use weighs about 425g (15 oz), is 91cm x 38cm (36" x 15") made of cordura nylon. It rolls up to 30cm x 10cm (12" x 4") I previously used a much lighter, thinner, but larger duffel which developed some holes. I got the current bag at REI many years ago and have used it many times on planes, trains, and buses. The last time I checked, REI was only selling fancier, more expensive and probably somewhat heavier duffels. A surplus store might be a good place to look in the US. To be fair, I should add that this size works fine for me holding: 2 rear Ortlieb panniers, 1 Ortlieb handlebar bag, 1 large rack pack, 1 helmet. I have also put a very small mosquito netting tent in it. If I were to carry front panniers and full camping gear, a larger size would be necessary.
