Your trusty steed is going to have a little block to sit on, to keep him or her happy on the journey. This attaches via velcro. You’ll need to wiggle it around once you have the bike ready so don’t pay too much attention to positioning at this stage.

The fork padding also attaches via velcro, at the front of the box – and there is a road bike adapter for us forthose skinny little critters.

At this point you should also check the red webbing loops are attached to the black straps where the seatpost and stem will be held – they should be there, or in your pack.
