to see my friends with their various forms of bike cases. My mate Barry aka Silver Streak has recently
purchased an Evoc travel case/bag for his Cervelo R3 and I took a couple of photos for him and I thought
I'd share them on the blog.
I'm starting to see the benefit of having my bike packed into the S&S case and thought I would share my observations.
Pros.
Getting around the airport easily and checking luggage including bike during regular check in. No need to visit
the oversize baggage section.
My bike in its small case fits into any car for travelling, the evoc and other require a larger vehicle as they are quite bulky.
The S&S case is very tough and has cross members inside to prevent the case being crushed making damage to the bike unlikely.
Cons.
There is more work in the assembly disassembly, packing process depending on frame size.
Saying this I was only about 15 mins slower than Barry with his bike in the Evoc case when we
packed/unpacked our bikes.
Needing a special bike with the S&S couplers is probably the biggest hurdle. You can pack any bike
in the other cases.
