Shipping to Canada?
 
I need to ship a bicycle to Alberta Canada, right now I am not sure on box dimensions or weight (about 60lbs)...what would be the best? fed ex?

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.
