I've taken my carbon to Oz for the last few years, always in a soft case. It's an Evoc, which has fibre glass supports and hard plastic covers for the wheels too. I've always taken the time to wrap all frame tubes in pipe cladding too, just in case and I've never had an issue.
It's light too.Oh, and I keep that giant inflatable bubble wrap stuff that things are posted in sometimes. It's perfect for filling in gaps around the bike.
@TTM do you have the alloy stand or the fork-block thing?
Whichever one you have, what do you think of it, and why did you make that decision?
Dammit-
Not sure what the alloy stand is, but I do have the road fork adaptor if that's what you mean?
It seems to work fine and is a good bit of extra protection for the front end, though I make sure to brace the fork (and rear end) with a spare axle or hub too.
Did you go for an Evoc then? Or still looking?
