  Hi JB,

  Thanks for the info. I've checked out Bikelfights and they're quoting +$1000. Not sure if thats right. Both sites are based in the USA. and ShipBikes aren't currently doing quotes as they switch over to UPS :(

  Will take on board the packing tips though :-) thanks.

  Hi everyone,
  Looking to ship my bike over to Australia in June when I will be moving over there. Just a one way trip for the bike. Been checking out luggage mule (quoting ~£300) and Send my bag (quoting ~£120).
  Does anyone have any experience with these couriers? or can suggest a preferred courier? Is there specialist insurance cover I can take out?

  My bike is a 2020 trek emonda SL6 disc. Not sure what the value of it would be today its seen a fair few miles but I've kept it in great condition and service it regularly.

  My query is, should I risk boxing it myself (just perusing through this forum there are some horror stories from some experiences with boxing and bagging) or can I rent/hire a hard case bike box? Anyone have any recommendations appreciated.

  Thanks.

  Everywhere seems to be sold out and won’t be in stock for a long whiiiile. Anyone know any sly shops that might have some in stock or have some kicking about they’re willing to sell?
