I have a trans-Pacific trip towards the end of the year and will be staying at the other end of the Pacific for around two months. A rental would be very expensive for two months and buying and reselling a bike would be a gamble and a hassle. I'd really love to bring my bike with me and am crossing my fingers that I won't be hit with as high a surcharge by the airlines if I bring the bike in a soft case. Since this is a one-time thing I don't wanna spend a lot on the case either. How are the cheaper soft cases from Performace, Nashbar or PBK??
I'm thinking of
this case from PBK:
Or
this case from Performance:
Or
this one from Nashbar:
