The Birdy Padded Suitcase is for use with the Birdy range of folding bikes. It is the next step up in options to transport your Birdy. Well padded for good all round protection. You place the Birdy inside and zip it up. It has wheels, a handle and a shoulder strap to make transporting a breeze.
When not being used, the padded suitcase can be folded to a smaller size that makes it much easier to store - but it is still relatively big. The suitcase is more suited to the traveler who has a fixed destination (like a hotel) that they are using as a base, and for people who are flying out of the same place that they landed in. It's really not possible to transport the padded suitcase on the bike so its no good for the adventurous tourer.
