Can any of you in the Indianapolis region recommend a bike shop that would be capable of boxing and shipping a fairly delicate vintage bike? I have a deal lined up, but the seller isn't able to pack/ship himself. Any info would be highly appreciated. Please pm or email (banjers@charter.net). Thanks!

Bicycle Garage Indy or BGI

Here is the info.

I always get my shipping boxes from the north store. I do my own and have for years, but they use Cannondale mtb boxes which are not as long, but double wide. Both wheels come off and there are cardboard inserts that the frame attaches to. The bike never is close to any side of the box. Top/bottom/front rear. They are the best bet with some pipe insulation all over the tubes.

Anyway BGI is a good place to have it done. If they will not I have more ideas/shops so get in touch.

Have them see Josh or Terry. Both great guys and Terry is in charge. They would do a great job.
