Hey guys

does anybody know of a place to buy MTB stuff from the US?

As you probably realised the dollar is super weak at the moment and its going to be a half price sale.

cranks over here for eg. RACEFACE DUES XC 250.00 in america 239.00 Dollars so that would be 125.00 quid, bargain.

  • You have to be mindful of duty payable on import, things at that price attract VAT plus handling charges from HM Customs - would still be cheaper but not as cheap as it looks, postage also deflates the bargin somewhat.

    My gf and I were thinking along the same lines. We're heading to the states for Christmas so thought we might get some lights out there seeing as you have to spend a fortune in this country to get a decent set! I'm not sure where to start shopping but i'll let you know if we find anywhere that looks good before we go

    Always a tempting thought.

    I want a Trek Fuel Ex 8 - £1100 in the US of A - at least £500 saving :cry:
