I bought a highly modified and chopped Raleigh twenty while on a work trip. I just bought a duffel bag to hopefully bring it back home with me...


It ought to fit easily once folded and the handlebars taken off. It has the handlebars with the curved fixed stem. Mods include alloy rims and missing fenders, no rack, new folding pedals which help flatten it a little. Last owner repainted it. I might tape some cardboard both sides of the bike to add rigidity to the bag and for protection.

Yes, like everyone here said, You have to make these lightweight as possible but also take off what you don't need. I removed the rear brake. Fenders would just get beat up in a bag.

STill waiting on the bag to be mailed. I'll take a pic when I get packed. Trying to avoid oversize luggage fee! Duffel bags ought to have more leeway.

I once took an r20 with 451 wheels with me to Dutch Harbort Alaska. It fit in a military sea bag. It did require separating at the folding hinge joint and tire deflation to fit though.
