A quick message about wastage, industry practice, and then people in a whole different league.
In a previous shop I used to build up new bikes out of the box. Every day each mechanic would produce at LEAST 100L (a standard wheelie bin) of waste. Plastic, polystyrene, cellophane, waste. Cardboard packaging would be a fraction of it, and the outer box would easily fall apart.
Frames would regularly come out of the box scratched and damaged, and this is across all big brands.
Then there's @stridsland_journal . This is all of the packaging to ship this frame as far around the world as every other brand. All recyclable. The outer box is solid and worth hanging on to in case of wanting to ship / fly with a bike if needed. The only plastic is a small velcro strap to hold it securely in place, but this is very handy to have.
THIS is what you get when you
'Design Slow, Sell Whenever'.
Arguably a passion project and not done for profit like a corporation. But thats what you get putting faith in someone that wont substitute and wont settle on quality.
Boyyyyyyo am I excited to get rolling on this
