Was looking for a travel case and couldn't find anything sturdy and with wheels. This seems like a good price

Just seen TK max - good prices but awkward color choices. This one is bigger than mule actually so quite a good size. Evoc a bit over my budget unfortunately. Thanks for helping

Quite expensive for something that carries little more than a bladder (check out TK Max they also do them). I got an evoc as its got a back protector and belt ( so it stays on better ), was lucky enough to get it for £50 on gumtree - never been used ( also so has a rain/mud cover)

I doubt it would work for a MTB, no fork cover and it doesnt look long enough. Also doesnt seem to have anything covering your rear mech, all the good ones do. CRC used to a copy of the evoc which is the daddy for MTB's.

Which one at CRC you think may be worth to have a look at? It's a bit confusing with them with clearance going all year round.
Another option worth considering is to get a bike shop to pack (or do it yourself) in to large cardboard box then get it delivered to destination

Heard that a bmxer friend wanted to take his bike on a plane trip. Was like £200+ to put it under the plane.
Was advised to dismantle put in a bag and claim as sporting goods, was roughly £27 to take with him.
So worth investing in a bag if you do take your bike with ya. Will save ya in the long run.

Read the reviews.
OK to Alloy bikes, Carbon? Get a better constructed case. Also some stories of bent skewers due to how the wheels mount.
Get a better case IMO.

Any better backpack under £50 than this Camelbak? For MTB plus occasional commuter ? Thank you
