Outeredge 20 inch Folding Bike Bag

I used it for train travel. The straps are a bit awkward, but a few twists and wraps and I easily transported it on and off the train. What a blessing to have my bike ready to go at Penn Station, NYC! It works a lot better than it looks like it should. It needs to be turned inside out to put the bike in, then folded back into the smaller pack to carry. Fortunately, the smaller pack is more than large enough to fit the bag, so it can be stuffed in easily. The clip on straps allow it to easily be attached to your bike rack or other travel bags. I hope it lasts long. The material seems a bit flimsy for frequent use. I may use it 2 times per year and if it lasts a few years, I'll be happy. Really, though, even then I can just wrap bungee cords around it and it should still work fine. Good buy for the price!

This is a very nice bag but.....I got two of these for our two folding bikes. The material is quite strong and the zips seem to be up to the task. The problem is that the bag busters and the transport companies don't show any respect for our luggage. So, one of the bags got a couple of cuts where the bike frame was scraped against the material the first time it was checked in. So, I got a couple of large sheets of cardboard and made liners for the bags. Two pieces, one that goes in the bottom of the bag and comes up the sides and the other that goes over the top and down at the ends. This arrangement keeps the metal of the bike away from the material of the bag and I have had no problems since. You won't need this if you are only ever handling the bag/bike yourself, but do it before you let any of the "professional baggage handlers" anywhere near your stuff.

Whilst this bag proved to be a bit of a squeeze for my folding bike and accessories, I'm pleased with the quality. The zips are good and strong, as is the material. The front pocket is great for keeping your helmet safe and clean but could be used for other accessories if you want. There are also pockets inside which I used for puncture repair tools and a mini pump.If you want a bag with extra storage to allow you to keep everything together then this should do the job. If you own a large folding bike, you might need something bigger though as my bike only just squeezed in with a lot of manoeuvring to get it to fit.

The bag is quite thick and strong with rubber feet on the base. This means it weighs quite a bit (1.3kgs) and is bulky when folded, but it feels secure.The supplied strap has plastic attachments, which come undone when pulled the wrong way, which happens often. This isn't really a problem, because the built in hand straps are a little too long to use as hand straps so make excellent shoulder straps.When folded you have a waist strap and two straps on top so you can attach it to the handle bars or the rack.Overall I am pleased with the purchase and would buy it again if I lost it. The weight and size of the folded bag are necessary for the strength and thickness of the bag in use.

By breaking down my 26 inch wheel Dahon Cadenza folding bike (remove wheels, seat and post, handle bars, wheel skewers, right peddle and mudguards) I managed to fit it in to this bag and fully zip it up (with a bit of effort). The Dahon has a rear rack which I did not need to remove. The length of the final package is 85cm which means I can take it on Eurostar as normal luggage. I ordered another bag for my partner's Brompton and when we travel together on Eurostar I will put one of my Dahon's wheels in with her Brompton to make zipping the Dahon bag easier. There is room for clothes etc. in the Dahon bag and even more room in the Brompton bag. Carrying the bagged bike a short distance is no problem using the hand or shoulder straps. Bag quality is fine although I would not use it when flying as there isn't much padding. PS if you just want a storage bag for a Brompton a Dimpa bag from Ikea is about £4 but it is transparent.

This is the best bag I've had and I've had a few. It's key benefit is that it fits my Dahon MU XL folding bike. To me getting the bike in and out of the bag as easily as possible is the most important aspect of a soft carry bag. My critical dimension is width which can be 35+cm depending how the handlebars fold over. Other bags stretch and strain to cover the bike whereas this slides over it - not effortlessly but a lot more smoothly. The other advantage is it's rubber feet on the base which gives it more stability allowing it to be opened up fully and flat on the ground so that the bike can be dropped into it with little effort. You still need to pull up the bag a little to finally close the zip but it is a king compared to others. The quality is superb with strong nylon and click-in straps including one to keep the bag tight and compact. Factor in the price and this is a 6 star product..

I could not believe how quickly this bag arrived, and on Free Delivery too. I have recently purchased two Raleigh Folding Bikes for me and my wife to take some exercise in our retirement, and ordered just one of these bags to check out the quality and ease of use. The design is brilliant, with the main big bag folding up into the smaller attached bag. When you have the bike in the bag you can place your helmet, lock and tools etc. in the small attached bag. Another significant benefit to using this bag is that it protects your car boot from damage from pedals and break leavers etc. The Bag opens flat, so you simply fully open it, stand the bike on the fully opened bag and simply zip it up from both sides, it couldn't b e easier. Really good value for money. Now that I have checked out its quality I'm about to order another for the other bike. Don't hesitate on this product just order it.
