I would go after Fed Ex with a finite amount of time allocated for fighting them. I would also touch the bike up myself and get it on the road. Riding it and enjoying it is sure to lessen the sting. If you can get some consideration from FedEx for the bad job they did, bonus. +2 for full frame shots. Looks awesome and congratulations.

This is really sound advice - thank you so much.


I promise more pictures soon. Here my plan was to start a thread to show off my great new custom frame, and instead we're talking about how FedEx messed it up. How sad is that?
