Does anybody have any experience which softcases will do? The size should be relatively tight to keep the bicycle from bumping around. I plan to make some kind of inlet to hold the softback in form. To start with I'd like to get some advice if somebody has already played with the same idea.
Thanks

I bought a suitcase from ebay that's 31x20x10 and the swift is snug in that. The case needed a new handle (made easily from parachute cord, but only cost 99 cents !!
That sized case is exactly 1 inch below the typical airline cut-off point, of 62 inches combined, so still should fly free if within the weight limit.
