EVOC

Transport protection, engineered small

EVOC makes bags for carrying bikes and equipment, and its product on this site solves one specific problem better than anything else in the category.

Where it appears here

The TranZbag ROAD transport bag.

What it is genuinely good at

Packing small enough to carry. The TranZbag fits in a road jersey back pocket or a bottle cage. That is the entire product: many train operators require a bike to be bagged, and a bag that lives at home is no use when you have ridden out and want the train back.

Closing in seconds, which is what makes it usable at a station rather than a project.

A built-in front wheel pocket, which is impressive on a bag this small and is what stops the wheel and frame rubbing.

Where it is ordinary

Protection. This is thin material chosen to be packable, not padding. It protects against dirt, chain grease and scuffs, and not against a baggage handler.

EVOC makes padded travel cases and hard cases too, and those are different products at different prices.

What to know before buying

This is a cover for trains, taxis and cars. Aircraft hold handling needs a padded bag or a hard case, and the airline’s weight allowance decides which.
