Shipping the bike using Bikeflights (and UPS)

I used Bike Flights to ship my bike to Astoria, OR.  I had a box from moving that I used to ship it in, which I got it from a local bike shop for nothing.  It also had a bunch of the axle spacers and axle protectors with it.  I recommend that you try to get these pieces if you go this route.

The main things I did were to cover the frame with pipe tube insulation and zip ties, removed the rear derailleur, removed the front and rear brake calipers, and finally made sure that everything was secure in the box.  I also left the rack attached to the bike.  We'll see how well I did when the bike shop opens the box!






Delivery to Bike and Beyond Successful (So far...)!
Pretty happy with the service I received with Bikeflights.  Highly recommended.
