I don't believed you mentioned specific bikes, which can make or break certain cases.
I have a Thule Round Trip Pro for my Road, CX and Mountain bikes.
It works incredibly well.
One thing to keep in mind with Hardcases is what to do with them when you get to where you're going.
Luggage + Rental Car + Hardcase = Good chance it will not fit.
1. Plastic sides come out of case, accordion flat and the whole thing collapses on itself.
2. Included bike stand secures bike inside case
3. TSA only needs to unzip to inspect. They do not need to unpack / remove covers like on most hard cases (The only time I've had a bike damaged while flying was because TSA did not repack a Trico Ironcase appropriately)
4. Bike Stand legs + padded wheel bags+ plastic case walls surround the bike frame.
My process
1. Mount Bike in Stand
2. Remove Wheels / Bars
3. Pad with Pipe Insulation
4. Use Gear Ties to secure everything
5. Unclip stand from legs, with bike attached to to the stand
6. Lock bike / Stand combination into case
7. Slide legs into side panels for additional protection.
Because you work on the bike on the stand and then move the whole situation into the bag, it is much easier than trying to work inside the bike case. Packing and Unpacking are much faster than with the Pika and Ironcase (in my experience).
