    If you're going through all the trouble of bubble wrapping everything to protect it then why would you leave the bars against the frame? That's more likely to cause damage than the linkages against the frame....

    I think the long padding at the bottom that has no use in this video is supposed to be on top of the rear axle block, and the velcro strap on top of that. That way it actually secures the rear end to the bag. ;)

    Is this the more expensive pro version of wheel bag or the basic entry level crc wheel bag?

    Would advise not compressing your hydraulic seat post as the cabin pressure cause increased pressure on the hydraulic internals and destroy your seals. Also have heard about taking pressure out of your shocks, I have never done it and no issues.

  • @JS-tb9hu

    What if it has tubeless tyres? How can you let air out without wrecking the seal?

    • @JS-tb9hu
      @JS-tb9hu Před 9 lety

      Its yellow but I'm not sure if it's a rim strip or tape. Least I don't need to put them below 26 psi (the minimum pressure)

      Rowan holmes If you have a look at the bag on CRC, there's a picture of a Nukeproof Pulse fitting in. No idea what size it was though.

      +Rowan holmes Let the air out/take the spring out of your fork and compress it and you should be able to fit the bike in most bags comfortably.

    The start of the Mountain of Hell in Les Deux Alpes is at 3200 m and nobody lets the air of their shocks for the chairlift up. The maximum cabin pressure altitude of commercial airliners is 2400 m.

      Catcrumbs the maximum cabin pressure is only relevant of you bring the bike into the cabin. Luggage goes into cargo which is a differnt pressure I wonder.

      If the aircraft suffers depressurisation, things will change dramatically, and your shock will go POP, making a bad situation worse.
