Folks,
I might be able to make someone very happy. I need to take a bike on Eurostar,
and to guarantee it travels on the same train as me, I ordered a bike bag. I saw
this model on the internet, thinking it would fold up:

heeled%20Bike%20Bag%20And%20Wheel%20Bag%20Set
It arrived today, and it doesn't fold. The small print is very important. It has
a "Stiff, reinforced, tough base" which is shorthand for, unfoldable. The
dimensions are correct, 134x90x21cm, but it seems much larger in the flesh.
Because it's so inflexible, I can't cycle to my departure point with it. But if
someone needs to drive with a bike bag e.g. if flying, then it may be perfect,
because of the extra padding.
I'm going to need two wheel bags anyway (about £25), and as it will cost another
£15 to return to wiggle then that's £40 absorbed already. Happy to sell the bag
for £15 instead of returning to wiggle and claiming a refund if it will meet a
pressing need.
