That box better have wheels, otherwise it seems to defeat the purpose.

I don't think it has wheels, it's more of a snob case to leave at home I believe (lol)

I'm affraid to ask how much that thing costs...

I agree - if it had wheels, it might make sense for airline travel.

I second the wheels motion. Rather than that, its got that executive look.

Scooper,
Mind sharing what the model of you luggage is? It looks great! Will I be able to fit my MU P8 in that?
Thanks,
ME

It's made by B&W International (German), but I don't know the model number. I bought it from Channell Wasson, the Palo Alto Brompton dealer. Interior dimensions are 24" x 24" x 11", and external dimensions are 25" x 25" x 12".

I doubt if you could fit your Mu P8 in it. Dahon's website says the Mu P8 folded dimensions are 13.78" x 25" x 30.3"..
