Thanks to customer CS who sent us this image of his Specialized Shiv fitted in to a slightly modified Ventoux box, avoiding the need to remove complex integrated cockpit.
If you’re interested in a similar set-up then please contact us mentioning Straight Mount Brackets.
US customer John sent us this picture of his well-travelled Tourmalet on this way through New Orleans. Looking good John!
We are honoured to be contracted by BMC Switzerland to supply boxes for their halo bike, the Masterpiece – as BMC say “an exclusive and unparalleled example of what can be done when no expense is spared”. Each and every Masterpiece bike or frame set is supplied to its customer in a custom Buxumbox.
The delivery of a Masterpiece almost always involves a flight. The cost and limited availability of these frame sets means that it’s a priority for BMC to utilise the very best bike protection available – this is not a selection based on aesthetics or image, it’s an indisputable business decision.
Everything about the Masterpiece involves the highest levels of craftsmanship and quality, hence a collaboration with Buxumbox on this project is a natural fit. Loosely based on our Ventoux Road model, this box has a unique space envelope, fittings and colour scheme all tailored to the Masterpiece.
This video posted by Canadian bike shop and BMC dealer Cranked shows the unboxing of this precious cargo.
Of course you don’t have to buy a Masterpiece to own a box of this quality, strength and ease of use. The original Ventoux Road box is available in 160 colours directly from Buxumbox – explore your options here.
Customer Emilio has finally been able to travel with his Tourmalet box – a trip much delayed due to the pandemic (remember that?!). This is what he had to say by way of review…
I often travel to Japan, a bike heaven if there is one, and I decided it was time to transport my bike without becoming mad every time I have to pack it. I ordered a Tourmalet, and happily received it … just in time for the pandemics. Now travelling to Japan is again (sort of) possible, so I am glad to say that the box fulfilled my expectations. Packing is easy. The bike is perfectly protected. It looks great, and raises the curiosity and admiration of other travellers. It also rolls beautifully and doubles as a cart for ordinary luggage 😉.
Cement Grey may sound a little bland but it’s been one of our favourite colours this year – wonderfully understated. Customer MC sent in these images of his Ventoux Road in this colour and commented:
“Tried packing the box today. I left the saddle and seat post in, just dropped it a bit, so that I didn’t have to disconnect the di2. Easy once you get the hang of it, it will be much quicker than other boxes where much more disassembly and strapping in is required.”
For those who are interested in specifying this colours, the code for Cement Grey is RAL7033
