Ventum Travel Case
Quote | Reply
I've got a Ventum One on the way and Victoria 70.3 will be it's first race!
Anyone have experience traveling with a Ventum and found a travel case for it that they like?

I have used the henhouse about 5 times and it works great

Thank you! The henhouse definitely does look like it's probably the best thing going. Due to past issues, I've been trying to avoid giving Ruster Sports any of my money. Might be unavoidable.

Great video! Thank you. Now I just need to figure out what case that is that says Ventum really big on it. I don't see evidence that they have ever produced one. I'll email Jimmy and see if they recommend something specifically.

+1 on Hen House. I used it for my Ventum without issue last year.

The Ventum bag in the video will come at some point but I do not have a date yet sorry.

The Biknd Helium is a good case that Leanda Cave and many of our other Pro athletes use. It protects the bike very well and packs down nice and small.

What size Ventum was everyone using? I'd like to travel using the Hen House case but according to the specs, my 58cm Ventum is too tall

I had the last version (black with red straps). But I think the sizing is the same still.

I have a 58cm frame as well and it fits into the Scicon AeroTech Evolution hard shell case. But it's pretty tight for that size frame but plenty of additional space left in between since the wheels are really well stored out of the way.

Thanks. I'll think about that one if the Ruster doesn't work out. Evoc worked well for me a few weeks ago with the Ventum

Perhaps the dimensions changed. I had to remove the chainring and it barely fit with that off. I don't see an issue with < 58cm though

I used a Hen House this past weekend going from Phoenix to Boulder on Southwest. Worked great to the point that I will probably buy one, although, that color options are terrible, imo.
