Thanks man. The only time I posted a bike internationally was probably 8 or so years ago and remember being well over on the length dimension of the box and assuming it would incur some penalty but it didn't. Can't remember who that was with though and don't seem to have a record of it on any emails.
I use two websites, ipostparcels.com (owned by DHL) and senditnow.com (owned by Royal Mail/Parcelforce) for EU postage of bikes. I concur with others, box size is important. That said, I've been told that these couriers rarely double check measures.
