• I've had good experiences with BIKESTER.co.uk, who seem to be in Germany despite the website suffixes... parcel said they are in Stuttgart, but there was also a Bury St Edmunds address on a sticker on the parcel, so maybe they've figured out a UK business in parallel to German, and move shipments between them. I really have no idea what I am talking about of course.

  • My mate just did a Bikester order and had no issues in regards to customs either so maybe what you’re saying is right!

  • I'd suspect that some companies imported a lot of stock into the UK before January and they can now still sell that to the UK from a UK address. It may be different when that stockpile runs out (but then they'll probably import stuff by the containerload to simplify the process). It's probably not just in cycling where that's the case.

  • bikester are indeed internetstores. everything comes from stuttgart but we have been working super hard to get stuff to the UK quickly with the help of a third party company that is dealing with brexit border shit. there is no arm in the UK yet but it is being worked on afaik. source - I work for internetstores!
