Forward Air or a truck freight company. |

I've used Fed Ex ground and DHL to ship tuber frames before. It'll run $65.00-$85.00 depending on where it's going. |

UPS will take it! I see custom chopper frames coming through my hub all the time. They normally are not boxed, only wrapped in some kind of padded tape or adhesive padding. |
