A word of warning if you purchase from the Wahoo website although it says U.K. they ship from the EU. I bought a bolt and have just had a demand for £43 duty.

£43 ?!?

Is that mostly a charge for the handling?

About right for VAT and duty from the Netherlands....except Wahoo will already have charged VAT.  Could be a little post brexit glitch to be ironed out

You should, in theory, be able to reclaim the VAT if that is the case. Some how. There may be a nonrecoverable tariff and/or handling charge in there as well… you’ll need the break down to find out.
