Bike Bag Reviews
EVOC Bike Travel Bag
I use and recommend the EVOC Bike Travel Bag. I’ve done a full review including video –
check out my comprehensive video/photo EVOC Bike Travel Bag Review here. Lots of TDF Tips readers have bought this bag after reading this review.
You can get the EVOC using the below links.
- Wiggle + Road bike adaptor kit – if these links don’t work, try this link for the bag and this link for the adaptor
- Chain Reaction Cycles + road bike adaptor kit (RBAK) – try this link for the bag and this link for the RBAK if the other two don’t work.

Scicon Aero Comfort Plus (2011)
The Scicon ACP is a pretty decent bag. Check out my in depth review of the Scicon Aero Comfort Plus.
Wiggle stocks the Scicon. If they show it as discontinued, search for Scicon Aero Comfort, as the 2012 version might have arrived by the time you’re reading this (I will update this post when they do have it).
