My entire coupled bike got pulled aside in the international terminal, because they thought they detected explosive traces. Upon further inspection, it passed muster. I always take tires and tubes off, simply because it's so much easier to pack. I always have a packing instruction sheet right on top as well. As far as I'm aware, they've never pulled anything out. They do leave their notices in there though.
