Review: Pro Bike Travel Case - light, easy to manoeuvre, easy to pack… but doesn’t stand up to the job cycling PRObikegear
is a soft bag that's full of nice touches to make packing your bike away for travel easy, but it suffers terribly from poor construction and just can't go the distance.
But if you needed to squish the bag down for storage during your holiday, taking these out and then replacing them for travelling home again would be a tedious chore. Next up, it's seatpost and bar and stem removal time. The Pro case comes with a frame pad that wraps around the front of the bike's frame triangle, with Velcro straps to hold seatpost/saddle and stem/bar safely out of the way. If your seatpost is heavily greased it might make everything a bit grubby, so a plastic bag might come in handy here.
Pop the drivetrain cover on to stop any other stuff you might put in the bag from getting oily smeared.The wheels slot into cavernous pockets each side of the bag and are held taut with a pair of Velcro straps. They're offset front and back to help with tidy packing, and there are large reinforcing plastic discs on the outside to lessen axle rub and rotor damage.
I've spent some time in the past packing and unpacking various bikes into a large variety of bike bags and boxes, and once the initial setup is done the is one of the good ones. Mounting the bike onto the cradle and then putting it in the bag is genuinely useful, especially at the other end when you might be putting the bike back together in a hotel room, where this frame can serve as an impromptu bike stand – so you can build most of the bike back up without making a mess of the carpet.
While there seem to be enough handles and straps placed on the bag, it could still do with more – shoving the bike around, you always grab for a handle that isn't there. The middle of the rear of the bag would especially benefit from one for pulling the bag in and out of doors, grabbing it off luggage carousels, and pulling it out of the bowels of coaches and cars, as that bit seemed to want to be grabbed over any other bit.
