Now that Bike 24 no longer ship to the UK, where is th best place to buy groupsets from? Looking for a 1x11 Deore groupset...
Right now, whoever has them in stock.
R2-Bike are generally cheaper than Bike24 for groupsets, and are good to deal with.
Stock will be your issue.
UK bike shops with stock and suck up the financial difference...
Good luck with that.
Bike-discount will ship but you have to spend > Eu175
a 1x11 Deore groupset will be more than Eu175 though so not much luck required.
AliExpress, don't forget your quidco
R2. I ordered some new pads and a fidlock bottle on Tuesday evening and it was delivered this morning
R2 don't list any 11 speed Deore that I can see.

At the risk of sounding like a Boris/Brexit fanboi, I'd agree with this. Suspect my replacement bike components will be like or like or even downgrades for the next couple of years.
In some cases UK shops don't stock or supply individual parts like some of the EU retailers do. Okay groupsets are fine, but a lot of SRAM components for example, to repair bits are unavailable in UK for the consumer and have to go through an LBS to repair or try to convince them to sell the actual part. Main use I've had for EU bike retailers is to buy those (genuine) parts I just can't get easily in UK.
