Packaging - Shipping 

Traveling With Your Bike?

Unless you are very familiar with the technical aspects of your bike, it is best to have a shop pack and unpack or assemble your bike. Better manufacturers require that their new bikes be assembled at a shop. During the assembly process, an attentive, experienced mechanic will find potential problems that can be addressed before they become emergencies.

In most cases Bike Flights is the recommended shipping entity. Scheduling with them is pretty simple and they will send the carrier to collect the box wherever you choose.

Always purchase insurance for your bike from the carrier!
