Hog_ Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 All I can say is....30kg's are way less than one would think! Who are you flying with? I always thought SAA only allows 20kg for sporting equipment. When I flew back to Germany the one time I had a bike, the asshat at the checkin counter was trying to give me a hard time, even though I was under the allowed weight. He was probably just fishing for a bribe, but I played it dumb and he eventually let me through.

Carbon... fancy ne! hahaha! I guess cardboard is just a different form of carbon. For those interested, a double ply cardboard bike box weighs about 3kg.

What does you bike weigh though?
Dan Dob Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) Ja, am worried about the weight issues. My Canfield weights a tonne and I'd like to bring a spare set of tyres with because I am going to be doing more riding than all of you-yes, that's a challenge! Edited June 4, 2014 by iRide

NicoBoshoff Posted June 4, 2014 Posted June 4, 2014 My bike weighs about 13.6 so I should be OK. Pretty much flying with all my "heavy" clothes (jeanpant, hoodie etc) and then my box will just be bike stuff, riding kit and a few shirts, shorts and undies. Will also squeeze handluggage to the max possible. I reckon two sets of clothes plus one on the flight will be fine with a few extra shirts and enough clean undies. I'll be riding with my spd's and wearing my 5.10's for casual just in case I feel like flat pedals all of a sudden then they're there. Can we just go already???

That's the ktm (aka Fat Bastard), not the intense
