any idea how much on top it adds? I've recently got a quote from a builder for the same thing of 200eur but he was going to do his own thing .. my thinking is rather than paying 24.7% duty which is about £350 extra + shipping I'd just buy tickets to murica for a holiday; get the frame there; build; ride; pack and take back with me ..

You buy the mechanism from Ritchey and pay a licence fee.
The system is used by quite a lot of builders - see here for an example: http://forums.thepaceline.net/showthread.php?t=162108
