Packing My Bike In The Scicon AeroComfort & Heading To Majorca 312. Bike Box Or Bag, Which Is Best? 

I travel with the bike box Alan easy fit aero. It is massive, but super quick and easy to pack/unpack. Wouldn’t trust a soft shell with my sworks 7 tarmac.

Me and my friend flew to Gran Canaira using these bags after recommendations from fellow club members who've used them for years with no issues. On arrival his left shifter had taken a massive impact and there was brake fluid absolutely everywhere, thankfully a local bike shop fixed it 2 days later... My bike was fine except on the return flight my rear seat stay was completely snapped in half and had to be repaired by a Carbon Repair specialist. BA did pay out for the damage but I sold the bag and went for the Bike Box Alan!

Glad it got there safe, looks like a good bag, good luck for tomorrow 👍🏻

Best of luck tomorrow hope you have great ride

Fair play you put your new bike in that, I wouldn’t touch anything that is soft like that. Good luck with the 312 👍🏼

Love the videos mate

Good luck mate 💪💪💪👊

Great review. Hope 312 goes well .

Good luck tomorrow🍀🍀

Great review. Looks ideal with minimum disassembly as you’ve pointed out.

Interesting Dave. Very informative as usual. Like the idea of not stripping the bike down for travel👍👍

Just back from Majorca. 4 bike box Alan aero fit boxes used with 4 lads cycling. All the boxes have dinks, scratches and stuff inside has moved even though it was tied down. They obviously throw bike boxes, bags about behind the scene. Hope all good with your bike on arrival

Dave wishing you the best of luck for the 312, happy that your equipment arrived safe and sound!! Now go out there and smash the course the for the Brits happy riding & enjoy . Nice bike bag btw 👍🏽!

I’ve used the same case no issues. It’s my stepdads. He’s used it abt 20 flights with zero issues I personally added foam for around the hanger and sides of forks

The new bag looks super compact and light. I suppose the larger/heavier Borson can hold more kit but everything is a trade off as it's like steering an ocean liner 😂 Great price too (relatively 😬) even with the extras. Best of luck tomorrow 👍

You should do an up close paint inspection of the Aeroad and the SL8 just showing us the paint job. That’s what people really wana see. Up close details ✅

I’m thinking of buying the Evoc Road Bike Bag Pro, halfway house between hard and soft bag. Would feel too nervous seeing the soft bags. Have an original Bike Box Alan but need to upgrade due to integrated cockpit.

I bought an aerofit bike box alan earlier this year, not super keen on the soft shell boxes/bags.

Best of luck mate! Show us what mammals are made of!

I use bike box alan easy fit . I wouldn’t never use fabric one .

I like to slightly loosen the shifters that way when they get it, and they will, they will love and not break. I didn't see if you used the brake blocks for transit?

Good luck mate, Is it easy enough to just catch a last minute flight to majorca and rent a decent bike for a few days? I have been toying with the idea for a while! if anyone else can help me out.. hotel reccomendations where to rent a fairly decent bike etc.!!

NO WAY I would trust this bag for my 10K+ bike. 50/50 chance it arrives intact.

Can you please share how/where you have the 360 camera mounted on your rides, i’m curious since you have flat handlebars.

Hey Dave. I've got the same bag, but the rear triangle protector is new to me. Does it go over the rear derailleur without having to remove it?

I just bought one of these for my move overseas. Terrified to put a 15k bike in it and let airlines handle it tho. Only thing is to decide where for the summer Nice? Mallorca? Thailand?

put mine in a cardboard box with pipe lagging on frame- to Mexico from London twice ..easy and cheap
