bikeflights.com is a discount broker for FedEx bike shipments. I have purchased shipping through them on three occasions and it's been cheap compared to what I would have paid had I bought directly from FedEx. Back in June I shipped my large, heavy LHT from Philly to Missoula, MT for around $50 with something like $1,400 in insurance.
You will, of course, have to have the bike boxed and the entire package measured and weighed to calculate shipping. If you buy from bikeflights, they email you a FedEx shipping label. You could have a LBS box, etc., the bike, buy from bikeflights and then forward the shipping label email to the LBS.
