    Happen to be in the states in the coming weeks and spotted a good deal on a frame.
    What's best method of transporting home?
    Pay for extra baggage with air lingus? Won't have a bike box so will prob just be wrapped or best to have it shipped by courier? Cheers

    take out the documents etc, repack it back into its box, it will be ine in the original box, I'd put it on the plane with me, it's not a bike, so you could just pay as an extra case, I'm sure
    courier is expensive, usps will cost 80-120 and will have it here in 5-10 days, if it's not caught in holiday mail

    Importing a frame from the states? Beware of customs charges which can be significant.
