Abstract: An improved method of packaging bicycles for transport or retail is disclosed which involves a minimum of disassembly before packaging. The front wheel is removed and secured alongside the frame with a packing disk between to keep the frame and wheel from contacting. The wheel is affixed to the frame to reduce movement. The right pedal is removed, wrapped, and affixed to the bicycle. The left pedal is moved to the lowermost position, out of the way of the front wheel. The handle bars are turned and affixed in a position parallel to the frame, requiring the packaging to have a minimum width. The derailleur is set to the furthest inside position. A fork insert is positioned on the fork to keep it from breaking through the packaging. This provides for the use of a minimum of wrapping materials while still protecting the bicycle. The positioning of the wheel, right crank arm, and handle bars takes up the least area and protects the frame because it never touches the box.
