On the departure from Spokane, the United Airline check-in agent was not aware of their flat $200 rate (discussed above) for bikes. Reporting back on our France trip experience. Here is a great page with links to most all airline policies: Somehow a timing crank w/ring might look a tad wicked in the wrong hands and minds.Īs far as a maximum weight target goes for flying some carriers in Europe, 70lbs is the weight threshold for any checked baggage and some carriers limit to only 50lbs! You might need to think about TSA looking at your carry-on and what they might deny as far as "dangerous items". I figure it'll inherit a ziploc with chains, some ziplocs with pedals, probably some ziplocs with left-side cranks (daVinci, so they both come off to pull the chains, and I don't want chain lube flying everywhere), computers, etc.By "carry-on" assume that = flying. We'd already planned to designate a carry-on as the bike stuff bag (tools to assemble, helmets, first day's clothes). Our tandem weighs 41 pounds in road condition (aka with rear pack), so I assumed something would have to ride in another case.

I have sent Bike Pro an inquiry about adding the plastic side panels. You can see what I mean about the steerer top here on the photo from Bike Pro website. Bikes with steel steerers would not be a concern, but a virtually unprotected carbon steerer in a soft ended case is cause. Wonder if there is a good way to add some kind of cover or reinforcement around that? Otherwise I was thinking we might need to pull the fork to pack it safer and use a PVC tube mock up as a fork/holder for the front of the frame. The carbon steerer tube sticking up high is somewhat unprotected. With the derailleur off, plenty of room to shift the frame rearward in the case. no point tempting fate to bend your dropouts. IMO it is always best to remove the rear derailleur regardless of what type of case you have (S&S or otherwise). We are just over 25" on the fork height, but with the setback in the normal forward position it looks like that should fit ok on the case's internal mount. I really didn't want to go over the 30" baggage height dimension as that is already at the limits for some carriers. Skiing or Snowboarding is required for certain winter positions.Thanks.
