I will be off to check out the mountain biking around Lake Garda in Italy late next week.

I've decided to bring my bike along for the trip and an in need of a bike box to pack it in.


Cheers

I've got a pretty heavy duty Trek box with all the foam bits, frame pads and built in nylon straps... nearly as good as a hard case. Was original packaging for a Trek madone but I shipped my Full Suss in it from the USA. Your'e welcome to borrow it. Located up in Malahide.
