Folding bike travel bags

[UrbanPuma]

Hi all,

Can anyone recommend a travel bike bag with wheels, so I can transport my 16" folding ebike on the tube.

Thanks

Thanks, looks like I'll have to do a DIY job, was hoping for something like this: https://www.cycletogo.com/product/vincita-b132b-soft-transport-bag-for-brompton-bike/ but it's too small for my bike.

I got one a while ago from Halfrauds which was big enough. I could try to locate it a measure if it helps as I never use it now, but it must be in the blanket chest somewhere.

That would be great if you could measure it please. My bike's folded dimensions are: L=85, H=67, W=43 centimetres. Thanks

Found it, mine is a Ridge brand with a shoulder strap, but seems to be only 75 x 67 x 43. Have a search on eBay I would think there should be different sizes.

Thanks for checking. I need one with wheels as bike is too heavy for me to lift. I'll check eBay, thanks again

For one of my 20" folder Bafang conversions, no ready-made bag intended for a 20" would fit, so I gave up looking and simply bought an oversized bag:

And a lightweight Blaupunkt branded folding trolley, similar to this:

That bag isn't padded in any substantial sense, and as it's held to the trolley by a nylon strap, the bag material wraps around the bike easily. I later added a light wooden board between the bagged bike and trolley base (slightly wider than the trolley base) to keep it all balanced while in motion. Works well, the bag trolley and light wooden base fit inside my rucksack.

Thanks for this. After looking on eBay I couldn't find anything, so I purchased a bag from Amazon that fits my bike's dimensions and some heavy duty luggage wheels...hoping to see if a luggage repair shop can fit them. If not, the trolly you've posted looks a good bet. Thanks

That trolley's small wheels cope with flat pavements, shops and train platforms ok, noisy like they all seem to be. The base is a little deficient in dimension, but that's also true of Blaupunkt speakers. The great thing is, it just looks like luggage of some sort, not a bike.
