What are the best options to ship a bicycle internationally?

If you plan to ship your bicycle internationally, check with your local bike shop to see if they can pack your bicycle up for you. 

If you do not want to pay for the service, you can easily find tutorials on YouTube to guide you along. The bike shop you go to regularly will most likely be willing to give you a used box for this purpose if you make a request.

You can also buy a hard case travel bag that is large enough to fit any bike from size of 26″ to 700C, which is about 29″.

If plan to ship a folding bike, this is the luggage size to consider.

If you use a hard case bag with wheels attached, it will be easier for you to move it around to your next destination, once it leaves the airport.
