I'm now 90% sure you can save yourself £45 each way by just carrying the bike bag on board yourself, which will regardless be within the 85cm length limit for standard bags. Would be a pain on a busy train through.

No chance, even in pre-brexit days they didnt allow this. I tried a couple of times. Fuck Eurostar, driving is way easier.

I took the eurostar a couple of weeks ago and there was a guy there was a bike bag, carrying it onto the train (on the London end). No idea how he got it through security, maybe now they're all employed by Serco or Mitie they don't care? Bit of a risk though

You can take a bike through as hand luggage if it’s bagged and fits through the 85 cm width of the scanners.

Someone I know did it to get to PBP this week and has done it multiple times recently.

I’m going to guess Amey’s bag was too big.
