I've been trying fruitlessly to get a definite answer. Say you're in continental Europe, order a bike from UK. As far as I can see there's €32 Customs to pay then Import Duty which could be 14% or 4.5% if they're "bike parts"
https://www.bike-eu.com/laws-regulations/artikel/2010/04/import-duties-on-non-eu-bicycles-1018983?_ga=2.61544940.1771866141.1610473319-1275999366.1610473319
So a €1000 bike sent from UK has possibly €172 in charges.
