Bike Packing Recommendations:

	We strongly recommend taking your bike to your local bicycle shop and having it professionally packed. There are horror stories about bikes packed at shipping stores. If it's packed at a bicycle shop there will be less risk of damage or additional assembly charges related to improper disassembly or packing.
	When packing your bike remember TAPE LINES! Mark your seat post height, handle bar and aero bar position with tape. This will insure proper positioning and fit.
