This is a test run of how my fully loaded Novara Randonee will look. I’m gonna wrap up the tent in a few tarps, but this is basically it.

This is how you fit it in a box, with camping gear.packed bike

I owe a lot of help to the employees of Performance Bike Shop – they hooked me up with a full set of zip ties, fork stays and all sorts of derailleur protectors that they get with shipped bikes. Also to the dude at Adams Avenue Bicycles who had the relevation that it might not be fitting in my box because I haven’t turned the fork inwards. Bingo! Now, it all gets in there, and just in case there was a fear of all this + a box of pedals, seat, and tools weighing more than 50 lbs to get onto the airplane, let me tell you from first hand experience – it weighs exactly 49.5lbs. Sweet.
