one problem with building your bike at the airport not hotel is what do you do when you want to got home, ride to the airport with bike box in one hand?

Well, fits all my shit.
Any folds up to A4 and sits on the rear rack.
Much easier to cart around airports than a box too.

I wouldn't mind something like that instead of using a hugeass box, but I somehow doubt they'd fit a DH bike.

I think the GE bodybag may be ok for that.

I'm trying to toss up between a Tardis or a body bag for a 5"-6" trail bike
I think the body bag is looking more likely,
Anyone got any advice?

Body Bag. The Tardis requires more disassembly.
Body bag only requires removal of front wheel, pedals and maybe bars depending on width. You might find it difficult to get a 6" trail bike in a tardis with longer forks.
I had a body bag - since replaced with a padded bag for more protection. I could get my old 6" bike (Enduro SL) in easily. Gave it a mate who uses it for his Nomad with 36's and easily fits.
