Hi,
Got a few options open to me...
1) Buy a bike from Canyon and ship to Finland
2) Buy a bike from Wiggle and ship to Finland
3) Bring bike parts in a suitcase and assemble a bike when moved out there
4) Buy from a Finnish bike shop
5) Buy from the states (looking at Mountain Cycle)
-Option 1 has great value, but still expensive
-Options 1 and 2 seem to have decent postage rates to Finland
-Option 2 has quite a good range of products
-Option 3 is bespoke, but I'd be in trouble if I ordered the wrong size
-Option 4 is expensive and not much choice
Can you offer any feedback for a guy soon to be moving to Finland? Any experiences to do with buying from US/ Germany/ Canyon would be most helpful.
cheers,
HR
Doesn't matter from who or where, but I reckon you'll be needing a fatbike!!
No advice on the bikes, however, I was speaking to a friend in Helsinki yesterday and they still have snow.
Canyon have a good sales organisation in Sweden, you could always go through them, however the pound/kr rate is not so good for you guys at the moment.
There is even a very good discount on frames for those with a racing license.
Nokian Extreme 296's would be on my shopping list. 🙂
