Sorry for the late reply. Currently packing up my life, slowly, as I depart in over a month now.
I decided not to ship anything ahead, I found a great deal with China Southern airline, which allowed me to add on extra luggage relatively inexpensively. ~US$175 for additional luggage all the way to Melb.
So I'm just going to bring it as additional luggage, packaging it in a box from my LBS.
Cheers. Yeah, that's normally the best way. I've used Signapore and maybe Emirates in the past because they have a more generous baggage allowance - handy for a bike. But I don't know when I'll be going back so will probably just try and sell the bike rather than ship it.
