Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.

It's a bit misleading to say it's brief case size, it's a large suitcase size. Just try fitting a 700c wheel into a briefcase.
My Buxum box Galibier case is 26 X 26 X10 inches
You can get most steel frames converted using these S&S couplers, either new builds or old frames. Plenty of builders offer this service.
Some builders can fit them to Ti frames, but these Ti couplers are more expensive.
Even though it's not much bigger than a normal suitcase, mine still sent via the oversized baggage, but at no extra cost, unlike a normal bike box.
Also easier to take on Eurostar.
