Cheers I was hoping for something less posh. Are they hard case?

No soft case with a hard slight dome centre for hub protection.

Selcof double wheelbag from PX holds 29 x 2.4s if that helps...think I got mine for a little over a tenner pre-Chrimbo

We have the double ones from Planet X. Ideal for hanging from the garage wall and also for spare wheels and tyres when Abigale is racing. We have to let a bit of air out of a new 2.6x29 to close the zip fully.
Also seen quite a few racers with the Hope ones but not sure on the wheel size

For what it’s worth I can get a 29x2.5 DHF shod wheel into those storage bags from IKEA. I can also get a 26x4.80 fat bike wheel in them too.

Impromptu purchase - that Selcof bag is £20.48 delivered currently, giving it a go. Cheers!

@rockandrollmark

Dimpa also good for Brompton bicycles and for packing panniers/bags into one big bag for airline travel.

Evoc ones are padded softcase with hard bit in the centre.

Top review on Merlin for Hope wheel bag says fine with a 29" 2.6 Magic Mary.

Cheers. Got one on the way from Amazon but will go for the Hope one if it doesn’t fit 👍

And if neither work I’ll be off to IKEA.

I bought some of those Ikea bags and didn't work for me - don't know if theres different sizes, or it's a squeeze but I bought the Evoc's afterwards.

The Selcof will take a 29x2.5 Maxxis Aggessai fine, but the double bags aren't wide enough for 2 boost wheels side by side
