freight nerd here. was it upright on the pallet, or is that how it arrived at your house?
No it was laying on its side despite the red UP arrows. I tipped it up to open it.
Who was it that was printing flat screen TVs on the side of bike boxes to get freight folx to handle them with care?
edit: Vanmoof, apparently. I think there were others though.

When I took my bike to Iceland i got the tip to label it model trains b/c it would be free to fly with and be handled better…

I’ve never conceived that someone might want to fly with model trains
Well they do, they are white boomer men, and they expect to take xxxlbs of toys onto the plane with no extra fee.

Did some parts swapping (post, saddle, cranks, and Stamp pedals) and put on some Aitken folding tires before hitting the dirt jumps today. Much more grip railing a dirt berm than the previous oem tires. 1 pound lighter chrome fork coming in the mail is gonna make a huge difference and look rad.
Gram counting is dumb but fun.
