Captain Scarlet Posted November 25, 2007 Report Share Posted November 25, 2007 Get a bike box from Halfords or somewhere, ask nicely and you should give you one as its handy to give it away.Take off your handlebars, and front wheel, zip tying them to your frame which will be neatly covered in cardboard.Take off your pedals and other accessories put them into a box to put inside your bike box.Turn forks and stem inwards if neccessary.Put bike in box, cut down the box if needed.Make sure its a tight fit and pack out areas with cardboard, where sharp components point (e.g ends of axles, cranks, etc)Hold the lid shut with a few rolls of tape, then go around the whole box with tape.Weigh the boxed bike.Give City Link a call and ask how much it would cost to collect and deliver your box weighing "X" amount.Shouldn't be anymore than £20.
