When you start flying with your bike, there’s always one burning question: what is the best bike travel case?
The types
There are soft cases, hard cases, and duffle bags, and each has a place. Soft cases (Evoc is the popular one; Dakine and Thule also make nice ones) are light and pack down. Hard cases (mainly Thule and PBK for mountain bikes) protect best but weigh more.
What we travel with
We’ll walk through the trade-offs — weight limits, protection, and packing — so you can fly with your bike without the drama.
