How long is shipping on Downtubes?
I ordered mine last week and am anxious to get it. =) Just wondering how long shipping usually takes.
I emailed downtube but haven't heard anything.

It was pretty quick for me. I am in the DC area really close to Philly, though. It took 2 business days (maybe 3 at the most).

It takes 5 business days to get to California. All of mine have arrived in that time.

Are they serious about not providing UPS tracking #'s? What are they scared of? It's not like you can't track the package after you got it and find out where it's been.

It's a small company, and trying very hard to keep overhead low. The owner does a lot of the work himself. It's all part of their value proposition - low frills-low price.
