A while back i recall some of you lot talking about a courior company thats good and cheap for posting bikes with, i think IIRC that some suggested it an option for even taking the bike on trips to the alps etc as a lower cost option than taking it on a plane etc. Anyways im not needing it for that long a distance, its for sending a bike within scotland,so anyone remember?

I always use Parcel Monkey when selling big items on ebay. Recently posted a boardman frame for £7 using them within the UK.

Took my coiler to the post office in a box I got from Halfords.

Think it cost about £18 and arrived in a few days.
