Anyone got any perception on how wise customs officials are to the true value of bikes? I have some relatives in the US who are able to post a frame over to me as a gift and mark the value at a reduced but plausible value.
Does a generic description like titanium bike frame suffice on the declaration form? I've not had any problems on the frames I've bought from China but it would be pretty easy to google the make of some US frames and get a sense of the retail price...
