Dunno but someone found a distributor-link that showed their cost price to dealers at 50% UK RRP....Nice.

that's in line with a lot of luxury hobby american brands - oakley, north face spring to mind from when i worked in a shop, no doubt many others are similar.

yeah aspirevelotech are american, and they don't charge any delivery fees over what the prices are listed on their site. when i got a CK headset off them, they put on the customs form "bicycle bearings, value $15" so i didn't have to pay any import duty on it.

very good and fast service.

Cheers for this... theflatboy - did you ask them to label the package as bicycle bearings or did they do that on their own back?

just seen this. they did it themselves - i was wondering what the deal would be with the import duty. no idea if they do it every time or if it always works, so don't count on it! nice little bonus, though. 🙂
