Subject: [CR]Wide range of frame spreaders

I have purchased many frames from eBay and other and I am always amazed in the wide range of frame spreaders used in the shipping. of the frame 1. The stock plastic frame spreaders. Dull and boring but very good unless they slip out. 2. Your threaded steel rod with nuts and washers each side of dropouts. Wonderful and will stay in place and take a direct hit with out dislodging. Very reusable. 3. A hunch of dimensional lumbers cut to correct width of dropouts with a wood screw in end to keep it in place. Very good and could help heat home when burned in fireplace in cool months. 4. A small tree branch with flats whittled on each side and pressed into dropouts. I got this in mail today and reason for list. Wins the originally award of the year. and perhaps can be made into a whistle to scare away dogs when out riding. 5. Nothing Poor Very Poor. Sender hoping no large object enough to crush box is placed on it. Also on one bike shippers travel case web site is for sale for $4.00 two 6'' dia. round plastic disks that screw in or out into each other to width of box to prevent travel case or box from crushing with too heavy a load placed on it.
