Tomorrow I will be packing my bike into a bike box ahead of my trip to Spain. As it has disc brakes and through axles it seems it won't be as simple as it should be. The online videos mainly refer to bikes with QR and certainly the Bike Box Alan seems to be designed to accommodate wheels with QR skewers.
Hacks I have found so far - use the QR skewers from a spare bike. Luckily I've got my old Carrera for this purpose.
Replace the through axles to strengthen the bike when its in transit.
Use a folded up business card to prevent the gap between the pads being closed.
Remove the discs
Is there anything else I should be considering ?
