    Hi Folks,

    I’m off to the world 24 champs in California in a few weeks time and am in need of a bike bag to fit the steed in. I’ve got access to one that only just about fits my 29er but isn’t very padded or stable when rolling, tyres have to be fully deflated which isn’t great with light tyres and tubeless. It needs to be on wheels so the Mrs can wheel it whilst I carry the other in a box. As we’re travelling around a fair bit it would be really helpful if it was a good sturdy one like a posh evoc or chain reaction copy.

    Having spoffed the savings on the trip already I was hoping not to have to buy one for a one off trip.

    Can anyone help me out? Payment in Beer and love ( the latter in spirit not actual body contact although I might stretch to a hug)

    cheers

    I think bike box.com is based in portishead failing that can probably hook you up with a good size bike box

    Gaffer tape a skateboard to a bike box.

    Have looked at the skateboard option but we’re limited on weight as using bike bags as our main luggage otherwise its £110 each to take them separately. Skateboards would add a few kg I reckon

    I’ve got a crateworks box you can borrow. It bought a 29r or two back from the states!

    This one.
    I’m in Nailsworth just up the road.
    No wheels but it’s light and tough.

    Wow thanks everyone for being awesome! Been in touch with tang and sorted a box out. Andy thanks for the kind offer but we leave 26th September so clashes I think so still could do with a wheels one ideally

    I have a CRC one. It’s basic but it does the job. North bristol if you still want one. I lent it out to someone on here before!
    I think it’s this one;
