I have this bag booked for hire next month for a trip to Italy to pack up my Madone , worth checking out for hire if you don’t take the bike abroad that often , good review Tom
I’ve seen so many soft bags being hurled into conveyor belts and sat underneath other suitcases - it’s a hard case for me - BikeBoxAlan are the ones to guarantee no damage.
I loved my EVOC bag until I didnt. On one of my previous trips somebody at the airline was so smart to load something super heavy on my seatpost and as the middle part of the bag is soft the weight has pushed down my aero seatpost into my frame and made id crack out of the seatpost where the little cut out is to make space for the rear wheel. The seatpost was also torqued up its recommended setting. So my recommendation would be to maybe remove the seatpost when packing it just to be safe. Also reported this to the EVOC guys. Unfortunately message read but no comment 🫣. Now i m back to a hardshell case which is was worse to pack than the lovely EVOC. Btw new fan of your channel. Keep the vids coming mate 🤜🤛
Great bike bag & review, definitely a good investment. On another note, love your Winspace bike & wheels. What is the total weight with peddles? Regards.
I travel 1-2 times a yr, bit annoyed with the wheels....like a shopping trolley....on a Scicon. This suitable for TT tri bikes? I note you keep pedals on which I like. Lastly, is there room for a track pump? Thanks!
I have another EVOC bag and there is definitely room for track pumps. I velcro tied my pump to the bottom bracket that the bike is mounted on and works like a charm.
Dear sir, Would it be possible to put 2 wheelsets in this bag ? I will take my gravel bike frame, however i would like to take also the wheelset for road and the other for gravel. Thanks for your reply. Miguel
Other videos take their pedals off. You seem to have left them on but not sure if that is how you would actually travel. If the bike will fit with pedals on, are there any risks with leaving them on?
what kind of car you need to transport it to/from airport? I checked AEROCOMFORT 3.0 ROAD BIKE TRAVEL BAG size and could not fit it into my X3. Rental cars are usually VW Polo size in Spain.
Really surprised you can't get this in your X3! X3's have some of the biggest cargo space. Are you putting down both back seats? Should be plenty short with the wheels off.
Tip - Helmet and shoes in the hand luggage. If the bike is delayed, then you still have options to ride.
Good that the rear derailleur can stay attached and I like the "bike stand" feature

Why did you have to remove the white straps to open it?
I'd only add name of this bag to the video title and description - for better results for people searching TH-cam 🙂
Other videos take their pedals off. You seem to have left them on but not sure if that is how you would actually travel. If the bike will fit with pedals on, are there any risks with leaving them on?
I’ve done over 20 flights with them on and never had a problem!
Bike flights has video and they do not recommend this bag as it is hard to ship.
Any tboiughts
Yes 👍 think they even said they will not ship it
what is the maximum saddle height you will be able to fit in this bag?
Straight from the EVOC site: "Maximum saddle height: 86cm (distance between lower part of chainring and top part of saddle)"
How to buy?

you need a bigger car. this evoc is bigger than the Aerocomfort 3
@@danielfeary Thanks.

@@DM-tg8es I did not tried suitcase. But I checked dimensions and with both folded back seats it doesn't fit. 50 cm at handlebar can be a problem.
Is the height or width of the handlebar the problem?@@TheOkinawaBoy I'm looking at this bag and have an X3 so super curious. Thx!
Isn't part of this bag too big for international flights?
watching this cause of jesse coyle and not chris miller fan club pty ltd
nice vid tom. well designed by evoc
Too expensive for the number of flights I take but nice review Tom
I was an airline baggage handler in my youth. I would've destroyed that bag and whatever was in it.
everything is money in cycling.
Yes…and? Such is life…
