Flying with a bike used to cost $200 each way. Now, airlines hide fees in their weight limits and love oversized luggage charges. That’s why we pioneered compact bike cases that slip past airline fees, keep you under 50 lbs, and protect your ride against everything from conveyor belts to cobblestones.

Editor's Choice Award: Best of Sea Otter 2019
"Once I arrived in Bentonville, I tossed the B2 in the back of a pickup truck, and drove in the pouring rain to an AirBnB. The tough nylon outer material kept everything inside dry and protected. When I unpacked the bike, everything was exactly as I’d packed it; no shifting, no damage. I’d say that’s a success."
The Orucase B2 Bike Case is a sleek, highly portable and trustworthy bag that is
still the best option for those limited on space and/or traveling on multiple modes of transportation.
"Orucase’s new B2 bike travel bag skirts expensive airline luggage policies so that you can travel with your bike without paying out the window."
"The Orucase B2 case and the high-quality wheel bags keep the bike and components in place. The straps and buckles give it added security, and the handles throughout the case make it easy to lift and roll or lift from the curb to the car."
"I was again impressed with the thoughtfulness that went into the B2’s design, while in use but also while being stored between trips."
"The Orucase B2-MTB provides a very secure way to transport your bag in the car, on a train or flying thousands of miles away from home. The higher than most price tag is easily outshined by the ease of travel and cash saved on oversize baggage. With how durable this bag has shown to be it will be in use for me for many seasons."
