Sci-Con Travel Bags - More Than 25 Years Of Experience In The Technical Bags Business

Sci-Con may sound like the name of a big science convention, and chances are it is consistently mispronounced here in the Americas, but what Sci-Con means to us is secure transport.

Sci-Con is based in Romano d'Ezzelino, at the feet of Grappa Mountain just outside Vicenza – Veneto Italy; which explains why they were in need of bags to transport their bikes when they were tired of riding up the same mountain all the time. Actually, Sci-Conwas forged in 1980 from an idea and a passion for cycling as a lifestyle. It was Mr. Luciano Fantin who put in the blood, sweat and tears to turn this vision into a reality.

That factory in the mountains is more than just a simple factory. It is a factory born from imagination, nourished with the beauty of Italian design, enhanced by quality and will continue to build with the innovation and ingenuity. Still run by the Fantin family, Sci-Con is going strong bringing the world Transportation Bags, Saddlebags, Sports Bags and all the great accessories that go with those bags.

From the beginning, Sci-Con focused much of their attention on creating solutions for travelers. We travel with our bikes,you travel with your bike. The problem with traveling with your bike is the damage that can occur if it isn't well protected. The last thing you want is to arrive the day before the race and find your handlebars or your wheels bent. That happens all too frequently.

Fortunately, we weary travelers have companies like Sci-Con doing constant research and development to bring us sturdy bags to transport our beloved bikes. Their research and development team benefits from the experience and the technical advice of professional rider's across the world. They know what athletes need and keep an open dialogue with many professional cyclist to make sure they can predict any future requirements these champions (and us hacks) need.

When it comes to travel bags, you can't rely on some anonymous bag manufacturer. You need a company with reliability and strength in the market. You need a bag that has science behind it, or all you will have are bent wheels and frustration. Sci-Conhas supplied sports bags, bike bags and saddle bags to over 200 teams of world class professional cyclists so you know that they are reliable and will be around for a very long time.
