Note, the bike box from your LBS was not designed/size to meet the postal sizing requirements. Be prepared with a razor knife to adjust the box (smaller).
For example, just ran a rate through the USPS site, SC to Seattle, WA. $35 if you stay under the 108 inch limit.
Spot on.
Khatfull packs for me and he is a magician.
