Helium Air-Cushioned Bike Case

Unlike most bike cases that rely on foam padding to cushion your frame, the Biknd Helium Air-Cushioned Bike Case is true to its name and uses airbags to protect your steed from the woes of the baggage room.

The bag begins with a tough 900 denier ballistic nylon and 1200 denier polyester Oxford cloth used to construct its shell. Plastic shields are placed on the interior where the wheels' hubs rest so that your bag is never punctured. And unique to this case, it carries two sets of wheels in nylon sleeves. Now you can bring your training and race wheels for the price of one oversized bag. The frame is held secure with a fork mount that is easily accessible when the bag is zipped open. Once the bike and wheels are secure, you simply zip the case and inflate the pneumatic padding to fill the space between the wheels and frame. Your bike won’t budge an inch inside the case. It fits bikes up to 64cm, though you may need to remove the rear derailleur on larger frames.

The Helium case weighs a mere 24lbs when empty. It features casters so that you won’t be stuck looking for a cart, and several straps and a pull handle make it easy to maneuver.
