Got my evoc bag
quick test to see how it all packed away (very easy). All you have to do is remove handlebars and wheels.. thats it. Bit disappointed you have to buy a road fork adaptor separately though, hope that arrives in time.
In the instructional illustration the box thing that the bb rests on is flat against against the chainstays, not sure if it is because my frame is small or it is better suited to MTB geo but it is nowhere near the chainstays so I put some towels under.
The bag is a claimed 8.6kg but came to 18kg with bike inside it and a couple of towels. My bike is 7.5kg. Think the bag must weigh nearer 10kg or my scales are wrong.
Going to put pipe lagging all around the frame and pack it with clothes and bubblewrap.
What is best to do with the rear derailleur? remove it? What are those things called that go in the dropouts that protect the forks and rear triangle from being crushed ?
n.b seatpost will be dropped.
