Recently, AusCycling bicycle mechanic Jade Lean shared a photo of athlete Chloe Moran moving through an airport transfer with the Enviro Bike Box during her relocation to Brisbane. Along with the photo came Chloe’s words—and they perfectly capture what we design this box to do: make bike travel simpler, lighter, and less stressful.

Chloe Moran’s feedback
“Travelling with the new Enviro bike box for my relocation to Brisbane was incredibly smooth. Light, easy to pack, keeps the equipment protected and the redesigned internal straps improve durability, making transport easier.”
This is exactly the experience we aim for—especially in the moments that usually cause problems: check-in queues, baggage drops, transfers between terminals, and tight connections.
Why “airport transfers” are the real test
A bike box doesn’t just need to survive a flight. It needs to be practical when you’re:
- lifting it onto a trolley
- moving through crowded terminals
- navigating escalators and shuttle buses
- repacking quickly after inspections
That’s why the Enviro Bike Box is designed for travel-first use: lightweight handling, protective structure, and a packing process that stays manageable even when you’re travelling solo.
What the “new” updates mean in real travel
1) Light and easy to pack
Reducing weight helps at every step—especially when airlines charge by kilos and you’re moving through transfers on your own.
2) Redesigned internal straps for durability
Inside the box, secure strapping matters because it reduces shifting—one of the biggest causes of transport damage and anxiety during transfers. Chloe’s callout here is a practical reminder: better internal security = easier transport.
Quick airport-transfer packing checklist
Before you leave home, these small steps make a big difference:
- Front wheel: For many setups, removing the front wheel makes packing faster and more stable.
- Straps: Tension straps so the bike cannot shift inside the box.
- Touch points: Add padding at any contact areas (frame/fork/rear triangle).
- Arrival toolkit: Keep a small kit accessible (multi-tool, adapters, tape).
If you travel often (racing, training camps, relocations), these basics reduce rework during inspections and make transfers far less stressful.
Thanks, Jade—and safe travels, Chloe
Huge thanks to Jade Lean for sharing the photo and Chloe Moran for the feedback. If you’re travelling this summer—whether for racing, training, or a big move—your bike deserves a box that keeps things simple.

FAQ
Do I need to fully disassemble my bike to pack it?
In many cases, you can pack efficiently with minimal disassembly (often removing the front wheel and securing key contact points). Your setup may vary depending on frame size and components.
What’s the biggest mistake people make during transfers?
Loose internal strapping. If the bike can shift inside the box, transfers and handling become riskier. Strap tension and padding are your best friends.
