5.0 out of 5 stars Great Case with Speedy Customer Service

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } This is exactly what I was looking for in a case to fly my road bike. It has a super robust, hard shell that makes inevitable drops and bangs in transit a non-issue. It has a built-in stand to make disassembly and rebuilding easy. It has semi-padded wheel covers to keep delicate rims intact. And on top of all that, it has a load of extra space for kits, accessories, or helmets.At least within the US, most airlines waive the oversize fees if you properly pack your bike. The one thing to mention is weight, which is likely going to cost you $100 a direction, given this thing's 40-pound dry weight. However, I'm in the camp that believes the protection offered is well worth the price. The bag also looks and feels very professional when carried throughout the airport.My case arrived with a broken strap. I couldn't return it for a new one as my flight was the night of the delivery, so I contacted Bolo for help. I was credited a partial refund that I felt was more than fair, and was able to get a new strap through Thule's lifetime warranty that arrived a few weeks later. This experience definitely made me happy that I bought from and through reputable brands.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not a usable suitcase for international travel

S.A.G. · June 19, 2014

I must say that I received the suitcase with the satisfaction of having a high quality product to protect my Mountain bike. After reading instructions and watching videos on youtube, I was even more excited when I notice how easy it is to use and how strong it is to protect.I went to my flight Avianca VA521 scheduled at 1:30 am departing from Los Angeles, CA and destination to El Salvador, Central America.The uggly news was upon checking in luggage counter, the suitcase thule round trip 100502 does not satisfy with the regulations of the airline to travel with me. The airline clarify me that weight was not a problem. The real problem was the dimensions, because their exceed the standard of 90 linear inches for recreational and sports equipment like is the bicycle.The airline offered me the option to use the package cargo, the suitcase does not traveling with me and they not warranted that the package arrives same day that I do. And it's not a risk I want to take.That day I lost my flight, go back home to pack it in a cardboard box, then again return at LAX airport and paying extra charges for re programming.On the other hand I took the cardboard box with my bike at no extra charge, for satisfy the dimensions of the airline.The product is very good, but is only a useless object. I come to return it and be very disappointed by the product

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent protection, but be aware of its size and bulk.

S.V. · July 5, 2021

I flew my bike with it twice and it arrived with no damage. The bag is excellent, and can fit not just your bike but clothes, helmet, protection gear.It is excellent, but you need to consider several things when considering this bag vs soft bags. I am not taking any stars off for its drawbacks, just make sure it will work for you, when it does its perfect.1) bike fit: I have a large trail mountain bike (pivot switchblade 2020 for size reference) and I had to take off the derailleur off and zip tie it to the frame, else the bike was too long to fit. An xl or longer bike may not fit so measure to be sure.2) weight - bike and bag will weigh over 50lbs, unless your bike is under 30 lbs with pedals. However if you keep it under 100lbs it's going to be fine for most US domestic airlines, and southwest for example charges 75 dollars bike fee regardless of weight. Some soft bags weigh less but your airline costs will still be 75 bucks. You can load up more things in there like clothes, helmets etc I had mine weighing north of 75lbs and it was fine3) size is quite large you cannot fit it in an suv standing up, it will need to lay on its side, and most 2 row suvs will need to drop both back seats to fit it. That means only driver and one passenger can ride in the suv, and if there are more in your party, get an additional vehicle. You cannot fit it in a sedan.Also, even when the bag is empty, when you arrive at your destination and take the bike out, it still takes a lot of space, so transportation from the airport will also be a challenge. I couple not fid the empty bag in a midsized suv (huyndai Santa fe) without dropping both back seats.4) storing the bag at home: you need to have a garage with space for it. Soft bags can fold and be store in a closet, this one is just big and you will need to find a spot for it.5) transporting in the airport - it's pretty easy since it has wheel, however, loading and unloading from vehicles does require two people in most cases. It has handles on back, front and top.6) you only need to take off wheels and handle bar, and you need to buy some velco ties and maybe some foam to pad things up and secure the handle bar to the side of the bike frame. I do not use the full stand that came with it, but the locking bar that holds the bike can be placed on the ground and if you are careful it will not tip over.7) the case does not support boost forks without and adapter! If your fork is 110mm,then you need an adapter in order to secure the mount so it won't move left and right. It does support various axle diameters but the width adapter is not included.8) this case can pair perfectly with sea suckers bike carrier - the sea sucker can fit in the case, you can velcro tie it to the bike carrier locking assembly and it fits in the bag easily. When you arrive to your destination you can transport your bike on the roof of any car no extra bike rack needed.In summary, you can fit a lot more than the bike in this case, but transporting the case and storing it needs some planning.

2.0 out of 5 stars Does NOT fit any E bike

B.w. · June 21, 2023

I have a turbo levo sl amd the straps to hold the bike down are way to short .. 2ndly the bike length doesn't fit on the case either even if the straps did work. 3rd for 1000$ you would think it would be better protection. . Flimsy plastic. For 1000$ I'd expect it to be like a pelican case not this 1mm plastic. I would not trust this to fly with

The best product

Thule Round Trip Transition Bike

(function() { P.when('cr-A', 'ready').execute(function(A) { if(typeof A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel === 'function') { A.toggleExpanderAriaLabel('review_text_read_more', 'Read more of this review', 'Read less of this review'); } }); })(); .review-text-read-more-expander:focus-visible { outline: 2px solid #2162a1; outline-offset: 2px; border-radius: 5px; } Satisfecho con el producto. Es resistente y facil de trasnportar gracias a las llantas (aunque pongo en duda su resistencia a largo plazo)

The SAFEST STRONGEST bike case. PERIOD.

D. · September 14, 2019

Pros :- Most sturdy bike case on the market- Most easy to use bike case on the market- Smart design- Includes a bike stand- Thule reputationCons :So damn heavy!!!!!MOUNTAIN BIKE : You will almost for sure go over the weight limit for bike with most airlines. You will have to pay for over weight penalty. With my enduro double suspension carbon fiber mountain bike the price was around 500$ for a around-trip with Air France to South Africa. And almost as much with Air Canada. So I strongly suggest you calculate exactly the weight of the bike case PLUS your bike PLUS your gears PLUS the packing material. Yes it's Thule but it's always better to use foam pipe over your carbon frame.ROAD BIKE : My carbon fiber road bike weights around 10 lbs less than my mountain bike. So the weight problem might not be for road bikes. But even with a road bike I don't think you'll be able to put a lot of your gears inside beside the bike and the wheels.But it's the SAFEST, STRONGEST bike travel case on the market. PERIOD. So if don't mind paying the extra penalty for the ultimate protection of your 10K or 15K or even 20K bike, yes you should definitely get yourself that case. With this Thule Round Trip hard case you can leave your precious toy to the "good care" of the airports employees and take your flight with peace of mind.N.B. People I know with inflatable bike travel case only had bad experience with these. The inflatable air bags don't survive the chaos of airports and air flights.

結局日付を過ぎても納入されず購入できませんでした。何度も問い合わせましたが返事もなく今月料金は引き落とされるようです。本当に欲しかった商品なので非常に残念です。今後は、Boloでの購入は控えたいと思います。

La rolls de la valise de vélo

d. · July 1, 2018

Comme d'habitude avec Thule : pas déçu !La valise est vraiment comme dans la vidéo de présentation. D'habitude, on voit un technicien qui a fait la manip 1000 fois faire la démo et quand c'est à nous de le faire, on n'y arrive pas (ex : les chaines sur la voiture). Là, c'est simple, précis rapide efficace.J'aime particulièrement le fait que le cadre ne touche aucun des cotés, la valise peut se prendre de méchant coup dans le transport sans risque d'endommager le cadre.Le trépied (inclus !!!) permet aussi de faire de la mécanique :)Un micro point d'amélioration (sinon, on va croire que je bosse pour Thule ;) ) : j'aurais mi deux roulettes directionnelles à l'avant aussi, histoire de faciliter le transport quand on n'a pas de chariot par ce ça reste lourd (un vélo + une valise + tout ce qu'on bourre dedans parce qu'il y a la place). En effet la poignée basse à l'avant n'est pas du plus pratique.Question solidité, une fois fermée, elle est vraiment rigide. Encore une fois aucune fois, pas d'inquiétudes à mettre un vélo de prix dans cette valise entre les mains de bagagistes à la délicatesse légendaire ;)

Hervorragender Radkoffer - Schrauben nachziehen bei Lieferung!

L. · March 6, 2025

Die Verarbeitungsqualität und das ausgeklügelte System inkl. Aufbauständer überzeugen.Nicht so schön waren Nachlässigkeiten bei der Montage, wodurch sich gleich beim ersten Flug einer der Griffe gelöst hat, was letztendlich zum Verlust eines Kofferanhängers inkl. Airtag geführt hat. Neben einigen Griffschrauben waren auch noch andere Schrauben im inneren des Case nur zur Hälfte angezogen. Da hatte es wohl jemand eilig gehabt. Nach erhalt des Koffers sollte man also einmal alle Schrauben abprüfen und schauen, dass alle Sicherhitsmuttern weit genug auf die Schrauben gedreht sind.Ein Problem stellen die vorderen Auflagepads aus Hartplastik dar. Airline-Mitarbeiter neigen dazu das Case an dem höher gelegenen, hinteren Griff anzuheben, wo sich die Rollen befinden und es im schlechtesten Fall über den Asphalt zu schieben, wie es in meinem Fall passiert ist. Eines der Pads war bereits nach dem ersten Flug komplett weggerieben. Anstelle der Hartplastik-Pads wären wohl ein Paar 360°-Rollen oder robustere Gummifüße die bessere Wahl. Das Ersatzteil kostet immerhin nur 9,99 EUR direkt bei Thule.Insgesamt jedoch sicherlich das beste Bike Case welches man momentan erstehen kann. Das Zerlegen und wieder Aufhauen des Rades gestaltet sich mittels des beiligenden Montageständers als äußerst angenhem und gelingt so innerhalb weniger Minuten.
