Product Overview
Designed by Chain Reaction Cycles to rival premium cases at half the price, the Pro Bike Travel Bag delivers airline-ready protection for mountain, gravel or road bikes without the bulk of a hard shell. A tough Cordura-style exterior, tarpaulin liner and reinforced base keep knocks at bay, while CRC’s signature Crush Protection Inserts lock into your drop-outs so the frame can’t be squeezed in transit. Reviewers consistently rate it “great value” and praise its generous capacity for modern 29-inch bikes.
