Subject: SV: From motorcycles to bicycles


	If you meashure the overall size of a bike without wheels the
distance of a racing bike is 120 cm from hub to hub.. A moutainbike will be
110 cms. While riding the Paris Roubaix randonne some years ago i spotted a
belgian bikeclub that had an offroad motorbike as followup vehicle. It had
racks for three wheels behind the driver an by than it was more or less
full. 
	A small airtransport bag will be 120 times 70 times 30 cms and that
volume is absolutely minimum when its really compact packet.. Givitopboxes
in inches instead of centimeters maybe.. Give it up or mount it as a
sidecar...
