Thank you Willie for the kind words. With my last trip using my custom Strida bag and Travoy I decided to remove the folding pedals as I packed the bag before catching the plane. I didn’t want to risk the folding pedals being damaged in the bag when being handled. It was a last minute decision and I didn’t think of using removable pedals which would have been a better idea for the reasons that you mention. I learned and tried several other ideas on the last trip and I plan on blogging about them, just need to find the time.
