The Swift fits into a 29" Samsonite hard case. It is necessary to remove the hinge bolt. Packing S&S coupled bikes taught me to strap all loose parts together, so the pictures show Velcro straps. I use self-extracting crank bolt on the right side so I can quickly remove the right crank/chainring. I leave the chain in place, but gathered and strapped to the chainstay. These photos are printed on one page, laminated and taped to the inside top of the case, with some nice suggestions for easy repacking by security inspectors. A friend has a Swift with an internal hub. His fits similarly. Again learning from the S&S bikes, if you have a derailleur, remove it from the hanger and tape it or strap it to the chainstay (with the cable attached). Also, take extra care to coral all cable ends; they tend to flip out of the case, interfering with closure and sometimes getting damaged.
