i used the same bag when i was in milan couple weeks back. And i was flying with ryan air:-)...so i was a bit scarred especially when we paid for one bike and fitted THREE bikes in the bloody thing.Yeah the bike bag is really big. It will procent well against cosmetic damage and stuff but if someone is gonna jump on it or throw another luggage on it the frame will be fukked anyway. Its good if you ask for fragile sticker or something like this. On the way there we havent done it and the muppets put the bikes at the very bottom of the luggage cart.How clever is that???? and yeah if i go somewheer in europe with bike im always trying to take a bus. Its longer but you can take more shit than on the plane and you put the bike in and no one is handling it afterwards so its there they same way you put it in.
and as for rome.....i wasnt in rome but milan i guess is kinda similar.......cobbles, tourists, insane driving system, which for some strange reason feels safer than london so you can go straight through an intersection on the red light and come out in one piece with a smile on your face.......so yeah.....
