Thank you guys! Got this exact bin to transport my new XP 3.0 for next week. Fits perfectly in there- the proportions of this bin are made for this bike. Bonus points: I also just got the Wike DIY bicycle trailer. I’m making it custom-sized to fit around this bin. So the Wike chassis breaks down flat, it slides in the Rogue either alongside or under the bin (without hitting the car ceiling). Once at the beach house, I use the ebike and Wike only to go back and forth to the beach. So the bike container transforms into the bike trailer! Win, win!!!

Today my XPremium arrives and I'm so excited. I read the dimensions and bought the 70-gallon tote at Home Depot for transport in back of my truck. Its a big tote and a heavy bike so I'll use the board I keep in the truck as a ramp, to minimize lifting.

A better alternative avoiding any heavy fat tire e-bike lifting. First raise the empty plastic container vertically, then roll in the foldable 60 pounds Aipas A2 Elite (almost identical e-bike to Lectric XP 3.0) to the vertically-positioned bin. Unfold the car dog ramp and slide the bin with the foldable step-through e-bike in the vehicle trunk. No any lifting required compared to video-displayed method. Enjoy your e-bike transportation.

I really dont like taking my handlebar off. Seems to me like everytime I mess with it the cables are never the same. Couldnt I just trim out the sides of the tote? II mean is that why u did that? I have a prius and I had a hard time getting just one back there without scratching up the bumper in the process. In fact I just leave it unfolded and fold down the back seats of my car. I know, that defeats the purpose, but Im 71 now and I dont sling things around like I used to.

I took the handlebars off just to allow more room for both bikes. It will fit in there with them on. They just stick out. Keeping unfolded and putting in car works. We just couldn't get both of them in our car like that. Thanks for watching and commenting. Have a great week. Kent and Tami

You can hide an Apple Air Tag on the bike. Some cities and states require ebikes to have an audible bell. There are some handlebar mounted bells that conceal the Air Tag as well as a few other holders. Or, just secure it under the seat or on the backside of the display. Try preventing the theft first by using a high quality lock and or chain as a deterrent so that the thief will ignore your bike. Preventing theft is much easier than retrieving a stolen bike!

@@ktkamping4975 Thanks for replying! Is it easier to carry the tote than the bike? If it's not really easier then it's not useful to have the tote because it's almost like lifting 2x. One time to lift bike into tote, and then another time from tote to trunk. And repeat that process in reverse when unloading, so now it's like 4x lifting. The banging around can be fixed with other means (e.g. thick blanket).
