skandy32 Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 well... just as an example tarty sent my a new rear wheel recently, with postage coming to about £10 including a chain.so something around that? Just take it to a post office! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gavtrials Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 Ive posted a fair few wheels in the past and they have cost me around the £6-£7 mark for 1st class. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rossi Posted December 14, 2005 Report Share Posted December 14, 2005 Yep, as gav sed, £6-£7, usually in between. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-Limburn Posted December 15, 2005 Report Share Posted December 15, 2005 same here ive sent a couple off before and it has cost about £7 something for special recorded 1st class thingy. that was with lots of packaging around the wheel, ie a bloody great cardboard box taped up to protect the wheel. however tartybikes just put the wheel in a black bin liner and tape it up which would be much lighter and therefore much cheaper to send off. the wheel doesnt need lots of protection in the post as they are strong anyway, and if they needed lots of packaging for the wheel then places like tartybikes would do so. sending wheels are actually very cheap compared to what i thought it would be.Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
