TRAVEL: Packing the Pakit (Bike Friday)

Taking our bikes with us when we travel is a must. Our new Pakits are getting ready for their first trip, so now it's time to figure out how to pack them.

We were just looking at the brompton for air travel, not great. The bike is just not designed to travel like that and one almost have to "stretch" to "make that work". For what you pay for, the Bike Friday simply seems a lot more versatile and worth the price. We like the bike friday diamond llamma, but for air travel, this pakit might just be the answer. Your video is only less than 4 mins, I realize real-time, it probably took somewhere along the line of 15 mins. That's impressive for a bike that lives in the suitcase while you fly. Do you bike from the airport to your hotel, by way of pulling your suitcases as trailers at the real-axle? We asked because we would like to have the option of air travel while having our bikes with us. From everyone we've asked, the Bike Friday is the answer.

Ron another great Pakit video! The quality and information of your videos amazing and very helpful. Many Thanks

Great. BUT where will we keep this suitcase, when we assemble the cycle again for use? E.g after travelling through train Or bus😂🙏.

Hi Ron - Thanks so much for this helpful video! I'd love to hear any updates on what air travel with your PakIt has been like - Have you ever had any oversized luggage charges? (I just ordered a PakIt and Samsonite F'lite GT 31" spinner, and am a bit nervous about airline check-in...) Thanks!

I am hemming and hawing about what folding bike to buy. Most of my travel with the bike would be on an airplane, so I am wondering about experiences with a Pakit on planes as well!

What size suitcase? Would you even consider a hard or soft sided case from Target? thanks, go Dee locks

Your bike video has been hi-jacked by the "New Jack LaLaine" Reload your testosterone guy"

Tony, I would respond, but your comment has gone over my head.

[@BigFatTonys]

I clicked on your video. It appeared to be starting with a commercial, but the commercial did not end. It was, as I wrote, the "New Jack LeLaine", renew your testosterone level and look like him or some such B.S. The title and author was yours but your video didn't play. Jack LeLaine went on for 5 minutes (I was doing something else at the same time) and when he finished my channel jumped to the next video in the queue. Your video did not play. Like I wrote before, this Jack LeLaine guy hi-jacked your video.

Later I tried again and saw your suitcase bike.

Tony, those are the overlay ads. After a few seconds, you can skip on to the video. KZbin places those ads based on the viewers demographic. Content providers don't choose the ads.I don't mind the them as I know that is what pays for KZbin vs paying a subscription fee.

[@BigFatTonys]

NO, NO, NO. It happened just like I wrote you. It was not an ad, there was no "Skip Ad". That guy hi-jacked your video. But if you want to just blow off this guy hi-jacking your videos, well, I told you about it, and if you are fine with it happening, fine. I'm done with it.
