S and S coupling 10" side pull grey hard travel case

Description

This auction is for a NEW
10" Side pull, Original style hard case
in grey.
A must have when traveling with your S & S coupled bike or tandem.
A hard case will provide the highest level of protection for your bike. They are ideal when you start and finish the cycling portion of your travel from the same place. They also work great when you have the ability to ship the empty case ahead to a point where it will be needed for your next flight. For maximum protection, we recommend that 3 or 4 COMPRESSION MEMBERS (see our other auctions) be used to stiffen a case. All of our cases are small enough to fit in the front seat of a compact truck or in the trunk or back seat of most cars so no special transportation is necessary to get to and from the airport.
It's very rare that a single bike won't fit into a 10" case. Packing a bike for the first time is like learning anything new, it takes
following instructions
,
experimentation
and
practice
. Packing tips are available on the S&S Machine website (Google it!); For tandems that won't fit in a single 10" case, we normally recommend two 10" cases instead of using an oversize case. That way, the extra space in each case can be used for miscellaneous items and clothing and since there are normally 2 people traveling with a tandem,  you won't get charged for the second case. Since many airlines add a fee for cases that weigh over 50 pounds, be especially careful to check the weight of an oversize case before you get to the airport since it's easy to exceed the weight limit.
Construction styles
Our original USA made gray hard case, with its rugged look, has been in use now for over 10 years and it is known for its good looks, strength and durability. We rarely hear of one of these cases being damaged.
Wheel configurations
Side pull
Has wheels along the long side of the case and is pulled on its wide side
This configuration is very stable even on uneven surfaces.
10" Side pull, Original style hard case (gray)
This case has 4 wheels located on the wide edge of the case so it's very stable when being pulled on uneven terrain or sloping surfaces.  We also added a telescopic pull handle which provides extra clearance between your feet and the case.  The ribs on one face were added to protect the center section that houses the pull handle. Although the basic case is 26"x26"x10", the same inside dimensions as our 10" case, the ribs add another inch to the 10" height of the case for an over the ribs dimension of 11".
Technically this case is oversize
so you may get charged for it however some airlines ignore feet and ribs when measuring so they accept it without an extra charge. The same
10 inch compression members
that are used with our standard case work with this case.
The ribbed side of the case can be seen in the photo below showing the 12" version of this case.
Approximate weight is 18.3 pounds
