Our Safe Station protects the hand built wheel on the way to its new home.
We are unhappy with the hardboard boxes that are usually used, because they don't offer enough protection during transportation. You can only imagine how these parcels get thrown or drop or boxes fall on each others and so on.
Anyway, based on the potential risk that our work (I spend hours to get a perfect wheel) could get damaged on the way to you, we decided to design a flight case, which is protecting your wheel on the best possible way. That's why we named them Safe Station.
These boxes make sure you receive your hand built wheel in the same condition than it left our truing stand.
Our Safe Stations are also "Handmade in Finland". To be more specific: They are made here in Ikaalinen as well.
Our first designed and built Safe Station made its trip abroad by airplane without any complaints!
The customer opened the flight case and received his wheelset in perfect condition.
Since back then we have put more stress and effort in the design, to get the Safe Stations more easy to carry and to use the space within the case more effective.
Below some pictures of flight cases already built for professional use.
