one this to consider with that case...it doesnt really fit larger (56cm+) frames.
great idea/design for sure though.
one thing to consider...a ritchey breakaway.
considering the price of a quality full-size travel case ($400-ish), you could get a used ritchey frameset for not much more...which would INCLUDE a case and guarantee no bike fees. thats what i ended up doing
