Bikebox is suitable for mountain bikes, downhill bikes,
road, time
trial, track and integrated seat post bikes for riders up
to 6ft 3in tall with the bare minimum of component removal.
Easily converts to a roof box.
Lockable.
Includes: Foam packaging and straps.
Conforms with latest baggage handling restrictions.
If your bike is damaged by the baggage handlers the
maximum pay out for the total claim is £900.
Baggage manglers, constrained by time restraints, and
a less than sympathetic appreciation of the value of your
steed, receives the bikes at the top of the conveyor,
he then literally 'skims' the bikes in there boxes and
bags in what ever order they receive them, to his colleagues
up or down the baggage hold, they are then stacked 5 to
6 high, there is no time or desire to put the stronger
boxes to the bottom of the pile, so the bottom bag or
box will have at least 70 to 80kg resting on it.
This is information obtained from a baggage handler and
is not mere speculation.
Bike box alan is the only lightweight box that does not
compress even when stood on. Further more, it is the only
box manufacturer that dare record on film the box loaded
with a £3000 Colnago carbon bike that is thrown out
of a speeding car, which resulted in no damage to the bike
and only superficial scratches to the box.
Bike box is designed and made in the UK by a life long traveling
Ex International racing Cyclist with advanced engineering
qualifications.
Bike box, we believe, is the safest and most
cost effective way of transporting your bike by air in style.
Custom Graphics - Branded Boxes
(trade) - Can be supplied in shops livery (at extra
cost). Straps are suitable for both mountain bikes and road
bikes.
Specials.

Congratulations on the purchase of your Bikebox.
You will be amazed at the time the Bikebox takes to pack
in comparison to soft bike bags.
You don’t have to dismantle your bike as much and
you don’t have to spend time with 'fiddly' packaging
materials. (instructions are included in the box).
INSTRUCTIONS TO PACK BIKEBOX
Remove pedals.
Deflate wheels completely and fix into lid of Bikebox
using wheel skewers.
Remove seat pillar and release shock pressure (where
applicable).
Remove handlebar stem.
Secure frame into Bikebox (Chain set adjacent to hinge
and chain set facing away from you).
Having the bike professionally secured within the box
plays a significant role in keeping the bike and its components
free from damage; our competitors generally ignore this
fact relying on the rider to hopefully wrap and protect
his bike themselves.
Experience and painstaking development at Bikebox has generated
a means of transporting your bike that no other manufacturer
can match.
For that very special reason we have a number of fitting
options listed below.
A standard bike box in general is for a road bike rider
with either a standard bike or integrated version as long
as the are between 5ft (153 cm) to 6ft -1" (183 to 185cm)
providing they have a frame with a 53 to 58 cm seat tube
(excluding seat post) x 54 to 58cm top tube.
A taller rider at 6ft - 1 1/2(187cm)" to 6ft -3 with a
standard geometry frame or sloping top tube needs a box
made from our large frame template.
A rider at 6ft-1"(183cm) to 6ft-3" (191cm) with an integrated
seat post frame will struggle to find a box to suit. Only
our bike box offers a chance.
However the only way is for the rider to provide a simple
paper template of the internal and external geometry/shape
of the frame/forks and chain set and rear mech (gears).
Wall paper joined with Sellotape™ is ideal.
With the customers paper template we can accurately customize
the box to suit.
NOTE:That
this Specialist service as a surcharge of £25. Please
note in certain cases chain rings and rear me mech may have
to removed if you have a very large integrated seat post
frame. Do not hesitate to contact our technical department
if you need help with the specification
Road Bikes
– forks stay in place, Head tube Velcro straps are
usually passed through frame and top of forks. Secure handlebars
with small Velcro strap.
Mountain Bikes
– sometimes forks have to be removed. Place forks
and handlebars into available straps. Bars and forks can
share the same Velcro strap. Larger forks may have to fit
under the frame.
Secure seat pin/seat and crash hat into available Velcro
straps.
Lay foam sheet over bike – check closure.
Install anti crush pole – spokes may need adjusting
to allow alignment.

BIKEBOX IN DETAIL.
1.Case.
The bike box is manufactured in specialised robust
plastic. A highly durable plastic that will not crack or
splinter.
2. Toggle catches.
Rival manufacturers boxes and bags use a variety
of fragile plastic toggle catches and zips / straps to hold
the sides together. Bike box believe in longevity choosing
robust serviceable steel catches.
3. Wheels.
The most vulnerable part of any style of case is usually
the wheels. Bike box use robust twin bearing rubber bound
wheels. Mounted on energy absorbing rubber pads to ensure
silky smooth, quiet operation. .The bike box is designed
for smooth surfaces and trouble free operation, with the
added unique advantage that the wheels, unlike our rivals,
have serviceable nuts and screws to facilitate removal in
the event of damage.
4. Integrated Seat Posts.
Bikebox is one of the few manufacturers
that can cater for the 6ft 2in rider with integrated seat
post. Straps are provided to accommodate the bike. Usually
by removing the seat top section of the slide over post.
Taller riders may have to remove the chain set.
