Can't say that I've noticed that.

Then again, Delta 'lost' my bike when I brought it in a Trico the past two times.

Maybe the delay was thanks to incompetent TSA employees, as opposed to incompetent baggage handlers.

I dunno about the rest of ya's but I really really wanna see what's in that box.

Update.
Made in without a hitch. They didnt even blink at my boxes when i checked them in. Weight and size were fine. They x-rayed and didnt open them either. I guess they overlooked the AK.
All was in fine shape and the box wasnt even damaged.

Thanks for your tips. :)

Yeah... complementary hub brushes for everyone!

:)

so can we see whats in the box?

I posted em already in another thread but...

Also, just a pile of random parts i came across during the time.

What size is the Panasonic?

Top tube 54.5 Seat tube 54

So damn pretty.

I'm going to jump off a bridge if I can't find myself a 3rensho/Panasonic/Samson this year.

The Golden Gate? :)

Im gonna put all my stuff from my Makino on the Panasonic, then the Nagasawa. Whichever one fits, rides the best gets to stay. The others will eventually have to go away. :(

I'm waiting for them to open the new Bay Bridge.

Nice idea. You can be the first one and yell FIRST! on the way down. :D

That Panasonic is so pretty...

How much did each of them cost you?

50 dorras

actually i've heard that US customs only randomly searches 10% of luggage that comes into the US?

can anyone confirm or deny this?
