Facts. what you need to know!

• If your bike is damaged by the baggage handlers the maximum pay out for the total claim is £900.
• Baggage manglers, constrained by time restraints, and a less than sympathetic appreciation of the value of your steed, receives the bikes at the top of the conveyor, he then literally skims the bikes in there boxes and bags in what ever order they receive them, to his colleagues up or down the baggage hold, they are then stacked 5 to 6 high, there is no time or desire to put the stronger boxes to the bottomof the pile, so the bottom bag or box will have at least 70 to 80kg resting on it.

This is information obtained from a baggage handler, not mere speculation. Bike Box Alan is the only lightweight box that does not compress even when stood on, further, its the only box manufacturer that dare record on film,(see our web site recording) the box loaded with a £3000 Colnago carbon bike that is thrown out of a speeding car, which resulted in no damage to the bike , and only superficial scratches to the box. Bike box is designed and made in the UK by a life long traveling Ex International racing Cyclist with advanced engineering qualifications, Bike box we believe is the safest and most cost effective way of transporting your bike in style by air.
