I, too, recommend a Humicase Metro model. They come with straps and are lightweight. I have three flamenco guitars, and all fit nice and snug in these cases, with no slack space to move around within. I would also suggest you consider a soft case that is fully padded with straps to carry on your back, if you are carrying it while cycling. I have a Ritter model that is very light with good padding all around. It might prove more comfortable to haul longer distances on your back while cycling, and the guitar would be well-protected. I have used mine to carry a guitar with me on board aircraft cabins and have stowed it in overhead bins and in closets. Cheers, Bill

had one of these made for my peghead ramirez..custom fit..means sending them the specs of the guitar... good company to deal with carbon fibre...seemed a logical choice after my hiscox came back with cracks, holes and splits etc after it's journey to brazil and back from australia... not cheap though... never trust an airline...it's the weight they put on top of the cases that is the main danger...a travelling case should have no 'give' ie stand on it...jump on it..drive over it... !!! http://www.karuracase.com/guitar-cases.html
