Does this bike need to be coupled? TicCycles can do that work and regularly does for several high end builders. It might be worth talking to them (actually Dave Levy) ahead of time so you don't end up with a step-over that has coupler challenges that aren't seen until it is in Dave's hands. (I think I recall correctly that Seven was one of the builders that sends bikes to him to be coupled. Could easily be wrong but in any case, I've seen some awfully nice spanking new bare frames in his shop awaiting the saw. Dave's got the process down and it's worth other really good builders' time to just send the frames to him and get on with the next.
