This video is a little different than my usual videos but I wanted to make it since the Holidays are coming up and a lot of you will be traveling. This is how I travel with my bike and gear by van and by airplane. This van conversion has been one of the greatest decisions of my life. Its almost been a full year now that I have had it and I still am in love with it as if it were the first day! It has allowed me to be able to travel to al my trips with all of my desired bikes and gear.
As for traveling by plane.....I usually only choose one bike. My Thule RoundTrip bike bag has been a game changer as well. This bike bag has a built in stand to make it so much easier to take apart and re build the bike making my travels so much more enjoyable.
Thank you for watching and hope to catch you on a trail near you!!

If THULE sells out of their bike bags this week, I’ll know why 😂

I don't even want to know how much that badass bag is!😂

Not for a 1000 bucks

Good morning Heather wow I love your Bike Bag it’s fantastic idea it’s better than my Box that I used last time. The time I got to my destination my box was half destroyed and some things were damaged I was not happy. I will have to get myself one next time I go travelling on a plane. Take care Heather and hope you have a wonderful Christmas

@shredntread9600 Год назад

Cool video!! I really like that Thule bike bag but it weighs 29lbs by itself. So it would be quite expensive to get that bag on the airplane, somewhere in the $150-200 range. But then again it s $6k bike and that bag has some great features. Keep Shred'N !!

@TheCrippo Год назад

I’ve got that Thule bag, used it to race the Yak Attack in Nepal. It’s so protective I didn’t bother removing the rear mech. Being able to fold it right down made leaving it at the hotel in Kathmandu a much more polite affair.

Heather, are all your specialized bikes 27.5's? Just got a Rockhopper 29 and it's so AWESOME!!😍The only thing I don't like is going from my GT 24 bmxer with 1.75 tires to my hopper with wide tires!! I'm so jealous of your van,lol.

Great job Heather. I really liked this video. Very helpful. Have you had any issues traveling with your ebike?

@HeatherMunive Год назад

Thank you, I haven't traveled with the e bike by plane yet. Just in the van and it's been great. Aside from it being heavy Im sure it'd still be relatively easy to travel with by plane.

@rupedog 9 месяцев назад

@@HeatherMuniveno Airlines to my knowledge take eebs... I understand its illegal, due to the large batteries. Basically as risky as a jerry can of petrol. 99.99% of times both would be fine.... But just that one time = crashed plane and 300 dead people. Case in point, an electric car battery fire that recently destroyed most of a car park. Imagine a eeb battery going faulty and bursting into flames while locked away in planes hold with all that other luggage to burn!

Could you please share the bike racks you use in your van? That is the ones where you take the wheel off, put the axle bike in the fork and the rack clamps onto the axle.

Thank you Heather so helpful! Quick question - does the Thule bag protect your brake rotors? My current bag ends up with bent rotors so i always have to take them off.

@HeatherMunive Год назад

Hey!! The bag does protect the rotors. that's one feature I love. the tire slides in and the rotors have a hard spot that protects them

@mikerothmusic4128 Год назад

@@HeatherMunive Thanks so much! About how much does the bag way once its packed? Mine is right at 51.5 lbs and sometimes gets overweigh charges.

@tomfitz3324 10 месяцев назад

@rupedog 9 месяцев назад

How do you keep the bike bag under 32kg /70lbs max of any airline... An approx 14kg/30lbs+ bike, 13.4kg/29.5lbs bag, plus the tyres, tools, helmet clothes, etc? My evoc pro bag is 10kg, bike 13.5kg, but with helmet, basic tools, pedals, shoes etc I struggled to get it under 32kg!

@philbuck365 Год назад

Hey Heather that travel bag looks amazing. I want to travel by plane with a E bike but not sure how that will work with the battery? have you done this?

@HeatherMunive Год назад

Hey, I have not flown with my e bike yet. I would have to do some research on if were able to travel with that size battery.

@rupedog 9 месяцев назад

Airlines cannot carry any e-bike. This is due to the risk of the battery catching fire and that would down the plane. U might be able to ship as cargo, with special measures for the battery. Besides it being illegal, it would be impossible to get a full fat eeb plus bag under the 32kg max.

How much do the airlines charge for the bike bag?

@michaelstape5437 Год назад

@HeatherMunive I was wondering this too?

@rupedog 9 месяцев назад

AA from UK to US was $75 each way. BA UK to SA is £70 each way😬 Both paid for this year.

@riskyron1416 Год назад

However no US based airline allows more than 1000 watt hour lithium batteries unless it is on a medically prescribed mobility device. And battery must be with you in cabin. a 48 Volt e-bike battery would exceed that.

@naturallogiclife4475 Год назад

@powskier Год назад

Don't you slip in a plastic wedge in the front brake as soon as you take the wheel off? Just a slight accidental touch of the front brake and you got yourself an air bubble and it's bleed time.

@rupedog 9 месяцев назад

That won't cause an air bubble. The issue is advancing the pistons so much they pop out and brake fluid pours out everywhere
