Is this something you sold to someone, or for your own personal use (for example if you were moving, or doing a bike tour of the Rockies or something). If it's something you sold, dear lord don't send fedex or UPS - they charge ridiculous brokerage charges at the border. Really the only way to go is USPS/Canada Post. Unless the buyer is in a rush and is aware of the charges (fed. sales tax, duty if applicable, plus anywhere between $30 and $100 brokerage charge). Brokerage charges for USPS is usually under $5.

Thanks, just a quick check with USPS is going to be about $86 for the bike box (90.8 ")(43.6 lbs)....I have yet to check on the box for the wheels. I am not to worried as the buyer is paying the shipping.
