Airline Acceptable Size:
The size of the BikeBox – when assembled – is 140x80x30cm which is the standard allowed size for most airlines without occurring oversize fees. Once arrived at the destination, the BikeBox folds into itself measuring a mere 83x77x7cm and uses 80% less storage space than an average hardcover case.
The massive advantage to be able to fold the box when not in use:
During AirTravel there are two things to consider when it comes to BikeBox dimensions:
- The max allowed airline dimensions – and what to do with the Bike Box when arriving at the destination and the journey continues by vehicle or the box has to be stored.
- One can always make a plan to fit the disassembled bike into a small vehicle, but a normal size bike crate does simply not fit in a small car.
- Our BikeBox – once folded – fits into any size vehicle or can be stored below the bed.
- Due to the ability to fold into itself, the BikeBox can be delivered at considerably lower costs.
- The BikeBox fits all MountainBikes sizes with up to 29-inch wheels.
