PACKAGING YOUR MOUNTAIN BIKE
You can pick up a cardboard bike box from most bike shops, get the biggest one you can. Take off your front wheel, seatpost and pedals (left hand pedal has a left hand thread). Take off stem. Put the front wheel beside the frame with the left crank between the spokes. Put your bike in the box with the stem, bars and seat tucked away where they will fit. You can generally slot in your helmet and riding kit too. Package the box up with packing tape, put your name on it and you're ready to check in. If you're not happy with a cardboard box protecting your bike there are soft and hard cases from various manufacturers. Try www.tricosports.com/ironcase.html (hard case) or www.groundeffect.co.nz (soft case).
