Reassembling My S&S Coupler Built Bicycle

What you see here are a series of photos of me reassembling my Co-Motion Pangea touring bicycle after flying with it from Zurich, Switzerland to Istanbul, Turkey. The bicycle flew for free on the airplane because the frame of the bike is equipped with S&S couplers, which allows the bike to be split in half and fit inside an airline friendly travel case (or in this particular instance – a cardboard box that has been cut down to size).
