What's the difference between this set and the Classic version? There doesn't appear to be a City version on Ortlieb.

The citi version has no good way to carry it once off the bike, unlike the classics. Even removing the pannier when its loaded feels like it is risky, due to the weight on that thin strap that actuates the release. They have a lower maximum real world capacity due to a shorter fold down neck. They don't have the internal small compartment the classics have. In short, there is a reason they are cheaper. They are simply not as good.

Very good question! It appears that the only difference between the Back-Roller City and Back-Roller Classic is that the Classic comes with a shoulder strap and has a built-in inner pocket. The rest of the specs look identical: same PVC coated fabric, same size, but the Classic weighs in at 1900g while the City is only 1520g. They have a couple different color options but otherwise they appear nearly identical other than the few differences that I've noted. Please let us know if you have any further questions and if there is any way that we can assist you. Regards and thanks! Doug

The city is really the same as the back roller classic. Same dimensions etc. Except that the city weighs in at 1520 grams vs 1900 for the classic. The other difference is the classic has a shoulder strap and hook.Hope this helps!

The city's do not "unfold" as tall as the classics therefore would limit the amount you could "overpack" your panniers. Thus the weight difference. On a plus side, the city's come with a nice clip buckle feature to secure the sides of the roll top closure which the classics do not have.

Andy, Thank you for your inquiry. The material for the Classic Series is on Back Order and so you are unable to purchase the Classic Series at this time on any of our sites. The Pro Series is more durable and I know that you will like them as well. If you have any questions regarding the Pro Series or anything else, please do not hesitate to ask. Train better, Katelyn

Do you know which one is the first version, I'm a bit confused for what I have read online. /:

The 4th edition is only different from the 1st-3rd in appearance, the rules are the same, but for example, one edition has sea tiles instead of borders.This is the basic, original game with a board extension for extra players, which is nice. The other "editions" are variations which simplify the game (family, junior) or change it up completely (Star Trek Catan) - probably not good starting points unless kids or complete trekkies are involved. Then there are expansions which require the core game (seafarers, cities & knights, traders & barbarians, explorers & pirates) and also have their own extension expansions.So yeah, just start with the core + extension.

It depends on several factors. If you have four or fewer people who will be playing, and you don't want to deal with a lot of setup, then get the Family Edition. If you have four or fewer people playing, and you want to have very flexible setup that can be entirely random, get the classic (the one in this bundle). If you have more than four people who want to play, this bundle includes the 5-6 player expansion. That was why I got this one :)

I'm sure you've already figured this out by now, but I figured I'd answer in case anyone else is wondering. I have this set, and the decks are both identical; there's no difference between the two. A little drab, if you ask me...it makes playing with these decks rather boring. Just wanted to put that out there.

From what I can gather from the images for the 15th anniversary set I've seen, the hex tiles will fit (they are a bit smaller). The road segments on the board are designed to hold the standard 3rd edition and 4th edition roads - the oversized roads of the anniversary can easily be placed, but they are subject to "catan"-quakes should the board be moved. Also, I'm not sure if the settlements and cities will sit nicely at the corners since the wooden tiles are probably a bit thicker than the cardboard ones of the regular set. The other problem you may have - you will need to get the port pieces to place in the boarders - there is no place for the full size wooden tiles on the board itself. I'd say the official board is probably 75% compatible with the wooden set - you'll need to make some adjustments in order to play on it.

yes there is a difference between all of the sets. I only ordered the 2013 because my son wanted those particular figures from that set. But you just look for the 2015 advent set.

Yes, this is the Official States release. But third-party sellers like to list other versions under the NA release sometimes so be careful. You're best bet is to contact the seller directly and ask what region it is. This happened to me once. Good luck.

The question isn't really very clear since Lego City is a theme of Lego sets like Chima, Castle, Harry Potter, and Star Wars. The Bricks and More set can used used with Lego City sets. The bin has lots of free space to add other sets.

Not sure what the difference is but I love the Classic! I use it all the time.

they're two very different technologies, it's not rightly fair to compare them. honestly, what i tell everyone is to go to a couple stores and *look* at the sets you're interested in.

I am confused by this as well. Why would the older, out-dated version cost more? It is not an antique!

Not to my knowledge. This is the only one showing on Amazon. My guess is the "standard version" has something to do with the game itself (which I haven't played).

I recommend purchasing the newer version. I own and love the old version and the new version has the option of adding a twist but you can just chose to play it the traditional way. The biggest reason I would recommend purchasing the new one if the words and people are more current and relevant to today.

Numerical seems like a good approach(1 then 2 and so on). The expansions contain no content that requires a previous expansion. There are 'themed' expansions that do not have a number but are associated with time period or some such thing ( I bought the 90's expansion and the first two 'regular'). So there is no real order required, any set will mix well with the original edition.
